My Lennon treasure was acquired in 1989 at a Beatlefest auction. I won the bid at $900. It didn't come with a certificate of authenticity (no biggy... those can be faked, too - ya know?) Had it looked at by a local historical organization who confirmed the signatures were the real enchilada. Thanks to the wonders of the Internets ;-) and all the Beatles-related books I've read, I was able to track the signing event, and place John and Brian in the same place at the same time... The Foyle's Literary Luncheon. <a href="http://www.eskimo.com/~bpentium/beatles/ownwrite.html" target="_blank">http://www.eskimo.com/~bpentiu...ite.html</a> I've exchanged e-mails with the owner of the web page. He no longer has his copy - sold it a few years ago.
