Some background.
I am 74 yrs old and so Enid Blyton was quite a factor in my childhood reading. Birthdays, Christmas, Sunday school prize giving etc and there was always a EB book. I read the Famous Five/Secret Seven over and over. A lasting effect is that I still enjoy reading and much prefer a good book to Netflix or Prime !
Now happily retired and I collect coins, always have done from a child growing up in a newsagents shop.
A few weeks back I bought some coins that I wanted at an auction and amongst them was a small autograph book. I didn't pay any attention to it at the time but last week I just thumbed through it out of curiosity. It belonged to a person called Richard who seems to have been involved with music/dance and musicals, more good amateur than professional I think but could be wrong. Some are dated from 1953 and have reference to stage activity. All appear to be performers. All very straightforward and ordinary.
Then, I turn a page and see " Love From Enid Blyton", couldn't quite believe what I was seeing. It is in with all the other autographs, just another entry.
So, what do you all think, could it be genuine / Does it look realistic/ as others follow it and are dated 1953 I assume it is from that year or thereabouts.
I have attached a couple of pictures so please feel free to comment.
Many thanks
Brian.
