Looking to the group for opinions on "Grapefruit" signed by John and Yoko and doubly certified by Beckett and Caiazzo.  Do you agree with the authenticity?  How does the group feel about pricing?  Note that the book is not in stellar condition.

Looks good to me. 

maybe 3-4K?

Yep 3-4k seems about right.  Although Press Pass thinks they can get $10.5k for it. Greedy buzzards.

Easily more than $3-4k with the doodle IMO. Beckett alone costs $250 to authenticate Lennon now. If you see one for $3k let me know and ill kick you down 500 or a grand for the lead :)

Lovely item. I'm sure none of the better dealers would let this go for less than $5k, especially with the certs. $10.5k is definitely way too high though, unless there is a really great and verifiable story behind it.

Thanks to everyone for your input.  Thanks to you I am quite confident about the authenticity and equally confident that the current price is unreasonable.

A similar kind of piece is being offered by Bonhams next week:

Nice item from 1971...

It sold for $5,300 including BP through Gotta Have Rock and Roll in December, 2022. No Beckett LOA at that time.

Thanks for that for informative bit of history!  I appreciate you sending it along.
