Some more information:

In Soviet design bureaus and factories, these are printed archival working copies (often lithographic or rotaprint reproductions of the master document) distributed directly to the shop floors and assembly technicians. The signatures and handwriting you see are part of the replicated document layer used by the people actually building the Buran, not "live" ink signed on the day.

 An incredible item  of space exploration history—perfect for serious collectors of Soviet space, rocketry, or Cold War militaria.
