Feb. 4: We're expanding and reorganizing our discussion forums. We should be finished on Thursday.

Excuse our dust.

Thoughts on this Beatles set, authenticity

Looks genuine to me, but wanted to gauge opinion.

Was originally sold through Bonhams several years ago - tape stains around the cuts also have been treated.

The link doesn't work for me.

Why not post a photo, since even if the link works it won't be available indefinitely?

+1 Please post the photos/scans so they will remain here. Links are temporary, the conversation remains so best to post the images.

They look terrific. But it's one of the many reasons I HATE cut autographs. I hate the way people (mostly young folks), cut right around the autograph. I have a bunch of actors from the '30s, 40s, 50s I bought in a collection years ago that are like that. Some cut right around the signature, from what was probably a nice 8x10 photo!!!

Looks real but also really unappealing in its presentation. I know that most of us can't afford a beautifully signed LP, 8" x 10" photo or even a group-signed plain paper item but better to save up for a set of nicely signed full album pages than buy something like this - unless it is listed at a real "entry level" price, which I presume it isn't.

 Indeed. I do have a full set already but am keeping an eye out for a second set, but only if i can get one at a good price. They're obviously cut, which is not great, but nice signatures. Sale price is £3,750. May well wait and save, it just caught my eye somewhat.

I would most definitely wait given the price. At auction you should be able to get a fully signed album page for around £5,000. If enough people are bidding you can normally feel pretty sure that the set is "right".
