If you're not going to buy these, hook me up with the seller!

I would say that they are authentic. A nice set in ink.

1. 8 signed Beatles pictures - went for £6200

2. A book signed by various including the Beatles - went for £900

3. 8 more signed pictures - went for £9400

I've attached pics. Lets see what everyone thinks of these then!

16 full sets of Beatles signatures offered in only two lots? I certainly have never seen anything like that before.  It's amazing at first glance, before you see all of the problems with the signatures.

Agreed, if all good it would have been pretty amazing. I believe the owner, who died, was given all these during the 1960s as he worked somewhere the Beatles played. He was disabled so was given alot of autographs over the years.

It sounds like he thought these were all real, and had no reason to think otherwise. At least he had one real set.

Attached is an article i was sent.

Look at the estimated selling prices. £3,400-£4,650 for the entire collection??? The whole thing is really odd.

yeah, not sure alot of these auction houses actually have any clue to the value. Though its not that hard to research for the internet!

You know my feelings about that lot! Mainly forgeries IMO.

Some of those signed pictures might have got that much each if all the autographs were authentic! Just out of interest, was the original signed autograph book from the OP sold separately ?
