"Legends: The Artwork of Rock & Roll Royalty" is a -SCAM-.

With a few possible exceptions, the so-called artwork for sale are non-disclosed reproductions or outright forgeries, posthumously forged with counterfeit signatures applied .

Legacy Fine Art & Production Inc. running this scam also runs the Artwork of John Lennon -scam- for Yoko Ono.

Since 1986, Yoko Ono and her business associates have misrepresented more than 35,000 posthumous black-and-white reproductions and/or colorized and altered fakes for sale to the public at $500 to $8,000 or more each as original works of visual art ie.“lithographs,”“serigr aphs,”“woodcuts" and "etchings,” not to mention as the "Artwork of John Lennon."

John Lennon died in 1980. The dead don't create artwork.

Under Illinois' Chapter 815, if sell a reproduction for $60 or more, you are required to disclose it as a -reproduction-. The statute also states ignorance of this law is not an excuse.

To learn more about this fraud through my published and posted monographs -Google- Gary Arseneau and John Lennon.

-Caveat emptor-.
