The cut was probably hiding the truth! Regarding the stories...lately it's,"this signed album comes from my dead uncle who passed away 5 years ago...he met the band backstage at Shea in '65...etc". Lol...
Remember those Beatles tour jackets from the last 1970's...very early 1980's? Sellers always claimed they were authentic...one guy said that he and his sister just walked in the Shea dressing room in 1965...Lennon welcomed them in...fed them...and then said to the seller,"See that tour jacket?...it's mine...you can have it!!!" He tried to sell it online...glad to report that it went unsold!!! Same with Beatles forgeries as of late..."this belonged to my uncle who passed away recently...he was in the music biz...blah...blah...blah!!!
