hi peacefrog...all it takes is cutting out some of your needs/wants!...and putting aside that extra cash to save for something you really want.

I would be a little bit nervous about hanging it on the wall as well, but I'm sure it can be done. I think it looks really nice as is on the guitar stand, so either way you decide to display it, it's gonna look great!

Yer I did get your pm and was in the process of sending quite a lengthy reply last night but something when wrong with the pc, so I LOST IT and it was to late to retype. Anyway the gist of it was this. First if you look for a thread titled Collecting Maca you will find out a bit more regarding my collection and experience in collecting Signed Beatles stuff. The advice I would give is stay away from ebay for now and learn as much as you can about Beatles signatures use the internet and look at sites that sell authentic stuff, try Ciaizzo, Tracks and the top auction houses of the world. Save pictures of set and examples into files on your pc eg sets from 1964 in a file named that, this will give you something to compear with when you find a set. I have hundreds of sets saved from 1961 to 69 then modern signatures and so on. Also the likes of Ciaizzo will authenticate items via e mail for around $50, I use this service before taking any gamble that is costing me £150 or more, I also have a few contacts within the industry that give me there opinion for free, but I don't use these that often. I normally make the decision myself then get there view before making payment. As regards to Ebay when I say, stay away, I am not implying that there are no good deals to be had, I have been very lucky and had some amazing and unbelievable bargains (Jo will confirm this ), BUT I know people within the industry that have been stung and ripped off and I have resided to the fact that it will happen to my sooner or later. I am also more than happy to give you my opinion but I must stress that, that?s all it is MY OPINION. Hope this helps and If I can be of any more help please ask, if you want any examples of genuine
