PLEASE HELP ME AUTHENTICATE OR AT LEAST EXPLAIN THIS GROUP OF AUTOGRAPHS FROM BAND AID WHAM PHIL COLLINS BOY GEORGE DURAN MCCARTNEY INCLUDED

I found this 45 of Band Aid "Do They Know It's Christmas" in a thrift shop today. I was very surprised to find that the back of the cover sleeve seems to be signed by Phil Colins, Boy George, Simon Le bon, Nick Rhodes, Andy Taylor, and another member of Duran Duran I'm not sure of yet, George and Andrew (Wham), and Paul McCartney. The signatures are ink, with smudges, overlapping lines, and indents in the paper. the autos seem to be authentic to the era 1984-1985 for these musicians. The sleeve also has an ink number in the lower right hand side 1/25. Can anyone tell me what this is? Are these real? Was this a promotion of some type.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Sandy

To me the McCartney signature looks slowly and awkwardly drawn. I'd have to say no to that one, unfortunately. I'm not familiar with the others, but they all have that look about them.
