Could you possibly post one of the letters? The only Macca autopen signature that I can think of was used for the Beatles Fan Club cards.

I’ve never seen him use an autopen on a letter. Maybe the letters have been copied ? Please post one when you’re ready

The real letters are locked in my map cabinet and I'm having trouble unlocking it! But I will, eventually, and then I'll post some high res pics. For Now I only have this low res file (from the auction). From the left: signed Paul and Heather; signed Paul and Linda; printed letter, unsigned; signed just "Paul".

second and fourth look strange to me but I have to take a better look. And I have to confirm (because I don't remember) if the first one is the actual letter or just a copy. Will post details here for sure when I open the damn cabinet!

Amazing. It's like a printed letter then.

I remember these from Julien's. The one on the far right seems to have a pre-print pattern. The second one from the left appears fine.

The second and fourth letters both contain facsimile signatures.

Ok, so I finally was able to get them. 1-3 on that Julien pic are definitely pre-prints. But the 4th one has a real signature. So my question would be: it's signed but was it signed by Paul?

Interesting. It might be an auto pen then because it definitely isn’t printed. That image is from a 40x jewelry magnifier - I’m not aware of any printer that can print such fine detail such as that
