Hello everyone, I would like to first say there are some very knowledgeable folks in here, reading through a few pages of similar posts I was blown away with the level of expertise here. Secondly, yes my title with "Help" was certainly no accident ;)

A little background information.

Like many woman my age that lived through Beatle mania and continued to love the Beatles through all the decades right up to the present day have kept memorabilia for whatever reasons, mostly nostalgia. My Niece, whom is actually my age (my oldest sibling is old enough to be my father) was my best friend and we are both obsessed with The Beatles. At one point she befriended someone that worked at United Artist where she acquired these signed items and they have been with here ever since. Recently her health has failed her and she decided to give me all her Beatles memorabilia since she doesn't want her rotten kids to get them. Since going through many of the items we felt if the signatures are legit they need to be insured and properly enclosed for protection against time. Since we all know there are far too many fakes out there we don't want to waste the time and money if they are deemed fakes. I felt joining this very knowledgeable group would be a great first step into getting some answers. If the professionals here have reason to think any of them might be legit we would like to take the next steps to get them professionally authenticated, insured, and protected against time. 

Here are just some of the autographs, if they appear to be legit it would be amazing to know what would be our next steps to having them professionally authenticated? Are there any members here that provide this service?

Thank you for taking the time to read all of this and helping, it's very much appreciated.
