John Lennons Erotic lithographs

I am currently going through my archive of scans from Johns lithographs and the following two - from different motifs - look totally off his other styles used during the session. i wonder if Yoko or someone else signed a few for him. Remember he signed 300 of each of the dozen Lithographs and he might have ran out of time.

Here is one I used to have from the litho John and Yoko. If I saw the ones you posted in isolation I would say they are not John's handwriting (while mine clearly was). The common John Lennon signature trademark you see around is based on Yoko's attempt at his signature. But I never heard anyone say before that Yoko signed some of the original Bag One run of 300 lithographs.

This one is in parts off - but I would say this is genuine. Perhaps the "faker" orientated on this style.

I sold mine 12 years ago but it was bought from Sotheby's and had a letter from Frank Caiazzo.

I think the OPs are just fakes.

How many of these have you seen? I know that one of them was recently on eBay. I’m wondering why I haven’t seen more of them if they’re the original lithos.
