What do you think about these Beatle signatures?

Hi everyone. I am brand new to this site. I have been a collector and dealer of autographs and antiques for nearly 40 years. I hope I am posting this correctly and in the correct category. Forgive me in advance if I've made a mistake.

I think the John signature looks good and possibly George, but I have doubts about Paul's. The P seems off as does the MCC. Any feedback/help would be appreciated. Thank you so much!!! Tim

For some reason the photo is not uploading, it says DISABLES. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Welcome! This is a common forgery style that’s known as a “SoCal forgery.” I’ll add the image to the OP for you.

Wow that was fast! Thank you so much! What is SoCAl forgery? In all my years I have not heard that term. Funny, the autograph is in L.A. Thanks again!! Kind regards, Tim

You’re very welcome. It’s a common forgery style that’s named after the Southern California forgery ring from which it originates. You can see more examples of that style here: https://autographcentral.net/

So Cal forgers strike again! They are responsible for more bogus "signed" Abbey Road" albums flooding the market than anyone!
