Don't buy it based on my opinion, but I say it's real!

Rob,

My suggestion would be to get an opinion from music expert Roger Epperson before buying.

Best,
Tricia

Looks good , connection on one of the "n"'s being a little stilted notwithstanding. I would defer to Ciazzo or Epperson though

Thanks you so much for your advice. I appreciate it and have just contacted Mr Epperson. I'll keep you informed.
Best,
Rob

Smart move--you want to get any valuable autograph checked out by an expert in it. Now that I'm awake, having coffee and looking at a few exemplars, I'm not comfortable with it.

The larger n in Lennon looks too angular. It should be rounder with more flow. The caricature looks

off as well.
