The row also raised questions over Dylan's artworks, prints of which can sell for up to $15,000 (£12,400).In a statement released on Friday, the singer-songwriter admitted that some of those had also been signed by machine.Castle Fine Art, a UK art retailer that sells prints of Dylan's paintings, said they had been "entirely unaware of the use of autopen".Only two collections, both released in 2022, were affected, it said in a statement.The autopen was first patented in the USA in 1803, and allowed a machine to replicate a person's signature as they wrote.Van Morrison was recently accused of using autopen to sign CDs, although his management issued a statement denying it.Sinead O'Connor admitted to signing her memoir with the device, saying: "I was not in a position to hand write my name 10,000 times, which is how many I was asked to sign.
