Early Beatles Signatures #1

I am posting 6 images of Beatles signatures currently on auction with Omega auctions. The signed items appear to be on cut out pics from newsprint magazines. All were signed early 1962 - 1963 at various venues across the UK. I remember this seller selling these or trying to sell these or similar items on eBay with buy it now prices in the £1500 to £3000 range. At that time there were no COAs. Now Omega says Roger Epperson has said they were ok prior to submission in their auction but I don’t think they come with his COA. I’m not sure on these and the story seems a bit too good to be true. I also remember he was selling a huge amount of vintage early 1960’s autographs from slit of the big stars of the day. Any thoughts or opinions?

I seem to recall that the vendor posted here a few times a year or so back. I can understand your concerns, so many signatures in a similar style and not a 'beauty' amongst them.

I'm leaning towards authentic but all signed at the same time. Perhaps somebody pushed a load of throwaway items like pictures cut from newspapers at therm and they responded to the bulk consignment with suitably rushed and abbreviated signatures?

None of the are particularly appealing visually although I do seem to recall a paper fan signed by many of the stars of the day that I thought was quite respectable.
