BEATLES 1967 AUTOGRAPHS?

This part set is from an UK auction and described as a  1967 set, signed during the Sgt. Pepper sessions.

To me, they look like an earlier period set, and the McCartney looks a bit strange (like later Post-Beatles sets). Any opinions?

I thought these looked fine, and the story seemed all ok to.

These are authentic.

What auction are they in? They look authentic. Very difficult to get the 4 of them in 67.

These appear to be earlier signatures to me too.

strange set.  definitely not 67.  but the mccartney looks more like a 90's or later version

What photographs do they have with the auction?

This would be definitely a rather spectacular set, with this kind of provenance. But the set still does not look a 1967 one to me.

They are nice signatures and definetly signed in 1967.

Great set especially with photos and being 67 sigs. Don't tell Bob Herman he will be up all night bidding. Ha.

Could someone post some '67 sets for comparison? I could search myself but maybe someone has some to hand.

They are certainly lovely bold flowing signatures. It is a shame that Ringo hasn't plonked his signature on the page opposite but I don't think his absence necessarily blows the provenance out of the water - he may have just not been there when the recipient got the idea to ask for the sigs.

I should think the photos alone must be worth £500 a piece with copyright. Obviously if all 4 were shown it would be better than 3 George and 1 Ringo. 

I doubt this lot will be cheap.
