It looks authentic to me.

You don't usually see books signed on the dustjacket - still an oddity to me.

It does look odd. He did the same thing with “Exposures.”

The only signed copy of a Biggles book I ever saw was signed (and inscribed - quite a long inscription as well) on the front flap of the dustjacket. Not 100% sure if that was his thing - it's hard to say when there are so few other examples to compare with (none actually that I can remember in many years). But quirks and all that.

I have a couple of books that are signed to the front cover — John Cale, Cliff Richard — but yeah, it’s not ideal.

This Warhol book looks decent enough to me, mind.

This is real. Warhol did this a lot with his book signings.
