Can anybody confirm this dual-signed photo of Sergei Korolev and Yuri Gagarin to be authentic or a fake? Thank you.

I am not an expert but the ink on both signatures looks suspiciously non faded. The Korolev signature also appears to lack fluency and appears to be shaky.

I would personally stay clear of them

Thank you, Steve. Your essential "Yuri Gagarin autograph study" has been very helpful as well.
