Interesting but peculiar story. It seems to say that at least 3 of thembecame good forgers, learning how to fogre 3 other signatures of the band so well that they sometimes are accused of being real, even today.
I mean, it would take me a long time to learn how to whip off 3 other signatures in a quick fashion. And these guys were busy writing songs, practicing, touring, hitting on women, etc. I mean, so what if you sign a nfew less albums by assembly line method. What were they on quota for signed material? When did they start signing for each other? 1967?
Ive looked at a few different stones sets lately and it does look like there in the same hand.
Someone like epperson who deal in this stuff daily should know the ins and outs.
The beatles did it.
I dont believe the article is saying Charlie wouldn't sign because ive seen videos of him signing, but he wouldn't sign when a bunch of memorabilia was dumped in front of him.
