OPINIONS??? NEWLY SURFACED LENNON SIGNED IMAGINE ALBUM???

NEWLY SURFACED LENNON SIGNED IMAGINE ALBUM???

What's your opinions on this Lennon autographed IMAGINE album from WFIL?

I believe it's AUTHENTIC. That would make it one only 12? Known to exist. I used to own one and sold it at GOTTAHAVEROCKANDROLL auctions. This has probably one of the best placed signatures I've seen on an IMAGINE album. It also has the doodle and the year, which is rare for WFIL. I only know of a few others with the doodle.

I feel it is very similar to this WFIL signed TWO VIRGINS.

Pictured is another from WFIL with the doodle and year which looks like it reads 78 but its 75.

Also pictured is a 1975 test press album inner sleeve signed by John. Pretty similar doodle and date formations.

I like the fact it has the doodle and year which is SPOT ON to my eyes. It gives more forensics for you to look at other than an autograph which can be practiced over and over.

So if someone said that you offered the Imagine album to them they would not be telling the truth?

No. I do not own it or have it for consignment. She said it's not for sale. I asked Dylan at gottahaverockandroll if karen offered it & he said no.

Can you post an example of a ‘75’ that’s consistent with the one on the Imagine LP? It looks odd to me.

I was actually referring to the year portion. Sorry about that.

Also the doodle and date from this signed test press sleeve from close to the same time period. Very close and very consistent! It having this helps add to my optimistic view of the autograph it's much more handwriting forensics. Also im thinking of the angle. Of the autograph. I believe it was sighed with the corner pointed towards him. Zoom in and tilt to make flat and it adds up to my theory on placement perspective.
