Description

Two vintage circa late 1963 signatures: a blue ballpoint signature, “John Lennon,” on an off-white 2.75 x 1.5 clipped card; and a black ballpoint signature, “Paul McCartney,” on an off-white 2.5 x 2 clipped card. McCartney began the signature in blue ballpoint before switching to a black pen. Both are individually encapsulated in plastic PSA/DNA authentication holders. In overall good to very good condition, clipped as noted, with McCartney retracing much of his signature in a different pen after a faulty first attempt, and old tape residue along the edges touching the signatures and affecting appearance. Accompanied by letters of authenticity from PSA/DNA and noted Beatles expert Frank Caiazzo, which reads, in part: "These signatures date from late-1963, and each is a nice representative example from the period."
