"Circa 1963. This is a full set of all four signatures of the Beatles on two pages, the first being a pink autograph album page which has been signed nicely by John Lennon, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr. John has added "love from," which is a nice touch. John and Ringo have signed in black ballpoint; Paul in green ballpoint. All have added "XXX." These signatures were obtained on March 23, 1963 after the Beatles performed in Newcastle. This page measures 4 1/2" X 3". The second page contains the signature of George Harrison in blue ballpoint on a light yellow sheet of lightly lined paper which measures 4x2.5". He has added "XXX" as well, so it is a match with the others on the pink page. As a bonus, Ringo Starr has signed the other side of this sheet. This signature dates from mid 1963. This set comes with a letter of authenticity from noted Beatles autograph authority Frank Caiazzo."
