Authenticity is Everything
Set of Beatles autographs from Kuster in-person collection
I'm interested in gaining some impressions from members of how these Beatles index cards look.
I'm doing a bit of study into a large in-person collection that they originate from. The collection had all genres of entertainment represented from the 1940s to the early 2000s.
The Beatles are not my expertise, so I thought I would see what folks here think. I don't have better images, unfortunately.
I can't see a record of previous discussions of this set on AL but apologize if they have been discussed before. If they have, would appreciate seeing a link.
Thanks!

Thanks for looking, guys. I appreciate the opinions.

Most welcome. Here is a felt tip from 1955 - perhaps he knew someone as it is always the same pen/ink appearance. I just saw another from '55.

That Macca was sold slabbed by RR in 2023. They all were. No mention of an IP collection. I hope they aren't some sort of copy.

You just added the Lennon - that was sold at RR too.

I found it. Here's a better image of the Lennon, described in the auction listing as being in a "vintage green felt tip".

The Kuster Collection was sold by RR as a lot - these were sold individually it appears with no apparent mention of the source:

It's an interesting collection to me. This "vintage felt tip" Liberace from 1951 is sourced from it.

That seems nearly a decade too early.

Here is a May 3rd 1957 Liberace in felt tip from Gabe made out to David Bines like my Judy Garland.

Gleason and others were using ballpoints quite early. I imagine these felt tips were available earlier than some information suggests.
