I wonder how many forgeries are part of museum collections.

The forgery itself is valuable and I hope they put it on display as such.

Genuine one says “I now have learned the Sun indeed revolves around the Earth. My findings were in error.”—Galileo.

When people are authenticating a forgery the first thing I ask is what font did Galileo use?
To: BenLurkin; telescope115; Daffynition; rlmorel
– was crafted by Tobia Nicotra, a well-known forger from Italy who was fined and sentenced to two years in jail for crafting fake Galileo documents in 1934. Nabbed after 88 years! Must have been a real Pisa work.
Tobia didn't make a good name for himself.
Galileo was right. Where we're going we don't need rwds..
Neil even sang that famous song!
