I was hoping some of you would weigh in on this Apollo 17 crew signed portrait. Are the signatures authentic? Any input and advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the reply, what do you think is the issue?

I thought the Cernan looked good but unsure about the Schmitt and Evans, I thought they might be early signature examples but I’m by no means an expert.

Sorry, all three signatures are bad forgeries.

The Schmitt is arguably the worst.

All three look wrong to me as well. Stay well away.
