John Lennon & Yoko Ono autographs... opinions appreciated! :)

Hi all,

A while back I picked up this Plastic Ono Live Peace album from a long time collector - she is from Wales, and throughout her collecting history has gained a few Beatles autos, direct from old promoters that are family friends, etc., so she seemed to really know her stuff.  I don't have a full history on this piece, but it looks really legit to me.  In person you can see the indentation the pen made in the autos, so it's definitely not a stamp.  No hesitation marks appear evident, and both the autos and the doodles look correct to me!

Times are a bit tough so I am considering listing this on eBay, but wanted to get some opinions beforehand, just in case everyone thought it was fake... I know opinions are only those, but I figure the more info I can get the better!

Thanks very much in advance!  :)

no question, the so cal forgeries are all very close, which is in conflict with his post beatles style.  when I first saw this one, I was hesitant to label it as it looked different than the albums that were posted with the known forgeries.  after looking at everything, and of course Roger's opinion, I have to agree that it most likely is a forgery.

After reviewing the most recent pics and taking everything into consideration, I now too believe it to be a forgery - this site is AWESOME!!

Other good news - I presented this info to the lady I originally purchased it from, and she essentially let me return it for a bit less than I paid for it, which was fine by me.  She still believes it to be real, and said she plans to get it authenticated - if this ends up happening, I'll post the results!

Thanks to all for the input and information!  Take care!  :)
