Having been both a buyer and seller of Beatles memorabilia, I am well-connected with other professionals in the Beatles memorabilia and authentication fields. In the 1990s, I worked closely with Frank Caiazzo, who is widely regarded as the foremost authenticator of Beatles signatures and provides authentication for auction houses and rare finds. Our long association greatly enhanced my knowledge and connections. 

 

I also collaborated with Tom Fontaine, an expert in buying and selling Beatles and entertainment memorabilia. Through Frank, I learned about a contact at the Soho office of MPL Productions, specifically a young woman who was Paul McCartney's right-hand person at the time. I wrote a heartfelt letter requesting something signed by Paul, and my correspondence was well received. 

 

Several months later, I received a letter informing me that they would be sending something my way. Eventually, I received an envelope from Soho, along with the signed card. 

 

This sales package includes the card, the envelope from Soho (as pictured), and the letter confirming that Paul would be signing something for me. Together, these items provide unquestionable authenticity and ideal provenance, as they come directly from the source. 

 

I've done my best to capture the actual colors in the photographs, adjusting the contrast, sharpness, and gamma to ensure accuracy. These photos were taken with my phone.
