"Hey Martin....I've only seen the smaller version...."
"Look at John’s nose. It’s gigantic."
"Here is a comparison of passes the first is the one with the Lennon signature. Interesting to note it has printing on the back and two registered symbols. The second image is one of the 1980’s reproductions."
"It's a lousy "learning experience"....."
"Here's the same 1966 Butcher Cover session photo from the fan club with the first name auto pen sigs"
"What happened in court?...anything?"
"The autographs are bogus..."
"I remember him...he was a dealer out of Conroe Texas back in the late 1980's and early 1990's..."
"Tell him that since Lennon died in 1980...and the fact that these passes came out in the mid 1980's...appox. 5 years after John's death...the chances of the signature being legit is actually quite slim...."
"That is an encouraging response. Imo. "
"He sounded disappointed. However he did email me and tell me he looked at his pass and thinks it might be real and he was going to send it to PSA or someone to see if the signature was real. I told him to send it to Roger but for sure it was not…"
"Nice to see this. Did he sound disappointed and sincere with his response, fab? Or do you think we need to see if it resurfaces?"
"Wow...you don't see that everyday..."
"I contacted the seller and when presented with the information he took it down. That’s rare!"

Posted on July 17, 2017 at 5:49pm 20 Comments 1 Like
A handwritten letter to Sir Lew Grade from Paul McCartney on April 6, 1970. This was 4 days before he told the world that The Beatles were breaking up. He's asking for the for the "Deed Of Assignment dated Jan 12th to be sent to him IMMEDIATELY!!! This refers to Beatles royalties. This is a rare inter-office memo...and McCartney signatures from this time period are tough to find. What kind of value would you put on this? Has a letter from Frank Caiazzo. Just asking...Thanks.…
