Ronnie Hawkins and The Hawks (The Band)

Hey guys,

I recently bought this and was wondering what the experts think. I didn’t pay much for it, but I’m a big band fan.

I see what your saying on flow but maybe they held the autograph booklet in their hands this causes the a bit more pressure wabble so it might not look as fluent....also their members have a bunch of the letter "R"

Okay, but I would highly recommend getting some additional opinions.

I would agree with Ballroom here. I haven’t studied these either, however these all look to be the same hand.

I didn't look too much into it but the biggest unusual trait is that it is very unusual to have 3 members that sign with the same or very similar R's. They do look done by the same hand.

Look at Ronnie, Robbie and Rick.

Plus there are too many similar vertical strokes as a whole.

Did all these guys learn how to write from the same Mother? I doubt it haha

Pretty coincidental and I'd also have to agree w/ Ballroom that more opinions are needed.

I would send this to Epperson and or the likes of a reputable authenticator.

He did have cheap prices but the items he had should be cheap. I really don't see anything that he had that people would be lining up at the door for....
