Is this Neil Armstrong signed brochure authentic? It looks remarkably similar to one that I was fooled by before... I'm not bidding, merely trying to improve my identification skills!

I like it. I might drop a bid two unless we get some advise against it. It matches a couple in the catalogue I have. I am no expert though.

I don't quite trust it. Check out his very bad Collins autographed picture. The fact that it is there certainly gives a question as to authenticity.

As stated above I think his Michael Collins casts doubt about the rest. Also have a look at this seller's two Buzz Aldrin autographs. To me, they look "off" as well.

Personally, I wouldn't gamble on these.

The Collins and Aldrin lithos are definitely deserving of the kindling pile beside the fire, but the Aldrin signed book looks good, just drastically overpriced... what is it about the Armstrong that doesn't look good?

I contacted the seller to request the date of the brochure but he replied there was no date.

Collins is fake, Aldrin very strange and Armstrong...?

But as you see, the seller mostly is selling items that are not cheap, so why only these three and a Gagarin/Titov? And most of all, he is a rather new seller (only 37 till now) so no background.

All times are CT (US)
