Beatles - Real (...Aspinals?)

Heres a set up for grabs at a big auction house. They have a few sets, but this one is advertised as genuine.

What do you guys think? The George and John look like Aspinals to me. Not sure about the Paul and Ringo.

Surprised me this auction house has listed these as a genuine Beatles set.

The George looks like it is a little odd to me and they all look very bright and clean. I don't know if they are legit or not.

the George and John are horrible.  The McCartney is not far behind.

This was done by Neil Aspinall...

I agree. It's one of Aspinall's better efforts that I've seen, and it's from an autograph book with other music signatures, so I'm not too surprised.

Aspinall's "Ringo" is his best...his handwriting has a natural right slant like Ringo's...plus another clue is the way Neil makes the "star" in his Ringo signature...it's almost always the same...

Shame that the auction house is selling these as real.

Aspinalls, no doubt. A nice set actually. I hope the auction house does the right thing.

Neil Aspinall was a roadie and friend of the Beatles. He was with them from the start.

Due to the demand for Beatles autographs he signed alot of stuff for them, not as forgeries but so the fans would think they were getting real autographs. Basically to keep up with demand.

Not a real set! Must be the work of Aspinall!

Yes, all Aspinall's for sure.
