Bob Dylan apologizes for using autopen device to 'hand-sign' new book

Bob Dylan has apologized for an "error in judgment," after it emerged that he used a machine to autograph special copies of his new book that had been advertised as "hand-signed."

Fans who paid $599 for one of 900 copies of the music legend's new book "Philosophy of Modern Song" shared their outrage after comparing notes online and realizing that the books contained identical reproductions of the star's signature.

Dylan took to social media on Saturday to address the controversy, saying he resorted to using an autopen for the limited-edition copies of the book after a "bad case of vertigo" prevented him from being able to sign the books himself.

"I've hand-signed each and every art print over the years, and there's never been a problem," he said in the statement shared on his Facebook page.
