Teletubby 138,756 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Unhappy Bob Dylan fans who spent $599 to buy 900 personally “hand-signed” copies of his new book, “The Philosophy of Modern Song,” are set to receive refunds, after the publisher, Simon & Schuster, acknowledged Sunday afternoon that complaints pouring in about the signatures actually being mechanical duplicates were valid. Each copy of The Philosophy of Modern Song had supposedly been hand-signed by Bob Dylan himself. The publisher had even included certificates of authenticity with each order. The books began arriving in purchasers’ mailboxes Friday, and buyers quickly began comparing photos of their copies. They soon came to the realisation that 17 variations of Dylan’s signatures had been recreated using an autopen, an automated signing device. When fans requested refunds, the publisher initially refused, insisting that they were indeed hand-signed. However, within 48 hours, Simon & Schuster sent out emails to customers on Sunday apologising for the “mistake” and offering them a full refund. source source Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elijahfan 25,225 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 This is quite scandalous. Not them acting like they weren't fully aware of that from the start... I have no idea how they thought they'd get away with it, but there's definitely base for a lawsuit here. I'm wondering what Bob Dylan himself would have to say about that.
