Eddie,

I think the Ringo is quite possibly genuine, but you'll need more expert feedback to be sure. How do you know the Julian is Julian Lennon?

I have compared it with a drawing that he did and signed ,and its 99% the same ,and was verfied at the time by an expert ,but the photograph was too light for him to make it out .Plus the fact she had images of julian playing in the street and photographs from john lennons balcony puts her right there in 1967

I don't know anything about Julian's writing...as a child or adult. I think it would be worthwhile having Roger Epperson give you a quick opinion on your signed book title page with Ringo and Julian, as well as the Lennon signed photo. It costs $15, so it's worth getting an expert opinion on. Then you can get full authentication if he think's it's genuine.

That link works! What you have requires some real experience in Julian Lennon's childhood writing, though. I won't even comment on it...just something I don't know about. 

Regarding the John Lennon SP, it's like nothing I've seen. But since you have the typed memo with it, I think it makes sense to find out if it's something Epperson knows about.

Eddie,

I agree with Travis. I don't think the John Lennon is genuine.

The Ringo looks really good to me. The John signature is very strange. It looks like the "John" could be authentic, while someone else added the "Lennon"?
