Here up for sale is this Holy Grail piece of The Beatles memorabilia. This 1st pressing of ‘Please Please Me’ 7” record was signed by all four members on January 24th of 1963 in their manager Brian Epstein’s NEMS central location record store on Whitechapel Rd in Liverpool, a few blocks away from the Cavern Club. The Beatles signed their new single release for about 10 fans after they performed an acoustic set of a few songs at the bottom of the staircase of the ground floor of the record store. George Harrison signed the middle of the record on both sides. Ringo Starr & Paul McCartney signed the A side & John Lennon signed the B side. All four of The Beatles signed with a blue ballpoint pen. Paul McCartney & Ringo Starr added x’s after their signatures. Only four authentic signed records have surfaced from that day over the years. This signed item was authenticated by the Beatles premier expert in the world for over 35 years Frank Cazzio. The original signed C.O.A. Is dated April 2, 2021 and is included. The 7” signed single is in a professional 22” by 15” frame with a picture of The Beatles from that day in Brian’s Epstein record store. The frame is matted on both sides, so you can see the autographs on both sides by flipping it over. This signed record linage is that it traded hands with three owners in Liverpool before in 2010 a Beatles collector in North America obtained the signed record. The record is in very good shape with some play wear. The record has ‘1N 1N’ in the matrix of the deadwax & has the RARE “McCartney Lennon” writing credits on both sides. Check out my YouTube video on this historic signed record on my ‘MR STICKERMANIA’ channel. This museum Beatles memorabilia item will be professionally double boxed for shipment through FedEx express. Thanks Frank

If you would like to see a larger photo please message us through eBay. All photos shown are of the actual poster you are bidding on. If it has any minor defects like pin holes, creases, etc. and they are not mentioned above, they should be visible in the high resolution photo. Please examine it closely or if you would like a more detailed condition report please contact us. WE DO NOT SELL REPRODUCTIONS OF ANY KIND.NO FAKES, NO REPRINTS. Perfect for a high end home theater. Highly sought after by movie poster collectors and aficionados. This is a genuine 30" x 40" U.K. British Quad ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER issued by the studio when the film was released and meant for theatrical display.This poster has been Linen Backed and is ready for framing.Prior to Linen Backing this poster was folded as issued.Very rare! Not many of these are left in existence. These can be very difficult to find in any condition! A long time can go by without one of these coming up for sale. You will have trouble finding a nicer one. CONDITION GRADE: C9 NEAR MINT Very minimal typical fold line touch up. Looks beautiful! Well preserved. When buying collectibles it is always wise to buy "the best of the best" as they stand a greater chance of appreciation. This poster is considered to be within that class and is definitely INVESTMENT QUALITY. This is NOT a reprint or reproduction poster! It is a REAL ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER issued by the studio when the film was released and meant for theatrical display. We are absolutely certain it is authentic. SHIPPING We use super strong hi-quality packaging materials including thick cardboard, masonite, and costly pvc plastic pipe. All posters are shipped fully insured and guaranteed to arrive safely. We will combine shipping for multiple wins/purchases at no extra charge!(Please see below for details) Please read all of the information below before bidding purchasing Please be advised that over 95% of all Original Movie Posters printed before the mid 1980's were issued FOLDED. This is NOT considered a defect. They were shipped to theaters this way. Vintage rolled posters do exist, however they are extremely rare. We can have any folded poster Linen Backed which will make the fold lines virtually disappear. Also please note that most movie posters were actually used at the theater, and some will contain slight imperfections such as: writing on the back, pin holes, fold wear, small tears, etc. These are all very common and to be expected, but if they bother you, all these minor flaws can be remedied in the linen backing process. Linen Backing preserves and can actually increase the value of a poster. For the most part, any flaws will be fixed and the poster will appear to be in Near Mint condition. For more information about our Linen Backing service please contact us. We do not always measure all of our posters exactly. Unless otherwise specified, poster measurements quoted above are approximate to the nearest inch. For example, if we say a one sheet poster is 27" x 41" its precise measurements may be closer to 26 3/4" x 40 7/8" (or something similar). This slight variance is quite common for all original movie posters. BEWARE OF "FAKE" MOVIE POSTERS! There are fakes, bootlegs, reprints, and reproductions of almost every popular movie poster. WE DO NOT SELL THESE AS ORIGINALS LIKE OTHERS DO! There are many unscrupulous dealers who successfully pass off these posters as originals. They have been doing it for years! These fakes are almost from originals, only experts can tell. Many who buy them don't know they have been taken. They only discover years later when they sell them that they are worthless. Most are from popular movies from the 70's and 80’s, but there are also really old ones and relatively new ones as well. They usually appear in insert size 14" x 36" and one sheet size 27" x 41". Again, all we can say is BEWARE! For more information please see our EBAY GUIDES link above. We grade our posters according to the Iguide Universal 10-Point Movie Poster Grading Scale. C10 Mint - Investment quality. No perceptible flaws of any kind. C9 Near Mint - Investment quality. Minor flaw on an otherwise unused poster. C8 Excellent - Investment quality. A few minor defects. C7 Very Good to Excellent - Fine condition. Still a very nicely preserved item. C6 Very Good - The typical used poster in average condition. C5 Good to Very Good - A heavily-worn item. C4 Good - Below average but still suitable for display. C3 Fair - Heavily worn, but yet still complete. C2 Poor to Fair - An extremely worn, possibly even incomplete item. C1 Poor - The lowest grade, representing items in the lowest possible condition. For details on this grading system please see our Ebay Guide GRADING / CONDITION. Some of our posters are "between grades". For example, a C8-C9 poster will contain all the qualities characteristics of a Near Mint C9 except for one or two very minor flaws that we believe prevent it from being a true C9. WE WILL COMBINE SHIPPING AT NO EXTRA CHARGEFOR MULTIPLE PURCHASES It is usually possible to ship folded and rolled posters together in one package by rolling the folded ones and shipping them all in one tube. Sometimes it isn't possible to do this. Sometimes we can't roll a folded poster. If this is the case then we must split your wins/purchases into two separate packages and you will be charged for a second shipment. All wins/purchases must be paid for within 7 days. If you would like us to wait for you to accumulate several posters and have them shipped all together so you can save on shipping, please send us a separate email containing your name, your eBay id, and eBay listing number(s) and we will hold your items until you tell us to ship them.

WE TAKE EXTRA SPECIAL CARE WHEN WE PACKAGE YOUR ITEMS Folded posters are placed in a plastic bag or envelope and in between STRONG pieces of cardboard and taped together before being placed in the package. Rolled posters are put into a plastic sleeve and then placed in a HEAVY-DUTY TOUGH 3” or 4" diameter thick walled PVC tube. We roll the poster into a smaller diameter than the tube. This is VERY IMPORTANT because it gives the edges strength and helps to prevent them from getting wrinkled. We add soft cushioning material (also very important!) on the ends to prevent them from getting damaged. We stamp “FRAGILE: DO NOT BEND” on the outside of the package.

The Beatles George Harrison's 'Arti' The Ceremony of Light 5 Candle Brass Stand Vrindavan, IndiaGeorge owned and used this solid brass candle holder in India from the mid-70s until 1996, he gifted it to his longterm friend and fellow devotee Srivas Das PracticeOften called the ‘ceremony of light’, the arti involves waving lighted wicks before the sacred images to infuse the flames with the Deities’ love, energy and blessings. It is performed by sadhus (Hindu monks) and pujaris (attendants to the Deities).Along with – or sometimes instead of – flames from ghee-soaked wicks, the light from camphor is also used. Other auspicious articles offered during the ceremony include incense, water, and flowers. Some artis also involve the waving of a chamar (wisp) or white cloth. These together represent the five elements of the world – 1) space (white cloth), 2) air (wisp), 3) light (flames), 4) water, and 5) earth (flowers) – and symbolise the offering of the whole of creation to the Deity during the arti ceremony.The term ‘arti’ also refers to the prayer sung in praise of the Deity while the wicks are waved. This prayer is joyously sung to the accompaniment of musical instruments, including drums, bells, gongs, and a conch-shell. In fact, the ceremony is often announced and concluded by the blowing of a conch-shell. The pujari also rings a small hand-bell while waving the wicks and singing the prayer.After the short prayer, the lighted wicks are passed around the congregation to allow members to receive the blessings infused within the flames. Members hover their down-turned hands over the flame and then reverently touch them to their eyes and head. The purificatory blessing, conveyed from the Deities to the flame, has now been passed on to the devotee.

eBay Final concertThe Beatles' final paid concert of their career took place on 29 August at Candlestick Park in San Francisco, California. The band played to an audience of 25,000, leaving 7,000 tickets unsold. A local company called Tempo Productions was in charge of the arrangements. This is a rare and highly collectable full ticket to The Beatles' last concert in 1966 at Candlestick Park. The ticket is in excellent condition, graded PSA 7, and is a must-have for any serious Beatles or music memorabilia collector. The iconic band needs no introduction and their influence on the rock and pop music industry is immeasurable. This ticket not only represents a piece of history but also a tangible connection to the electric atmosphere of that final performance. Don't miss your chance to own this exceptional piece of entertainment memorabilia Live: Candlestick Park, San Francisco: The Beatles’ final concertAlthough they made an unannounced live appearance in January 1969 on the rooftop of the Apple building, The Beatles’ final live concert took place on 29 August 1966 at Candlestick Park in San Francisco, California There was a big talk at Candlestick Park that this had got to end. At that San Francisco gig it seemed that this could possibly be the last time, but I never felt 100% certain till we got back to London.John wanted to give up more than the others. He said that he’d had enough.Ringo Park’s capacity was 42,500, but only 25,000 tickets were sold, leaving large sections of unsold seats. Fans paid between $4.50 and $6.50 for tickets, and The Beatles’ fee was around $90,000. The show’s promoter was local company Tempo Productions.The Beatles took 65% of the gross, the city of San Francisco took 15% of paid admissions and were given 50 free tickets. This arrangement, coupled with low ticket sales and other unexpected expenses resulted in a financial loss for Tempo Productions Candlestick Park was the home of the baseball team the San Francisco Giants. The stage was located just behind second base on the field, and was five feet high and surrounded by a six-foot high wire fence.The compère was ‘Emperor’ Gene Nelson of KYA 1260 AM, and the support acts were, in order of appearance, The Remains, Bobby Hebb, The Cyrkle and The Ronettes. The show began at 8pm.I was the MC, and, as any Giants fans will know, Candlestick Park in August, at night, was cold, foggy and windy. The funniest thing this night was one of the warm-up acts, Bobby Hebb. He stood up on the stage at Candlestick Park, with the fog, and the wind blowing, and he was singing ‘Sunny’! It was tough anyway to work a ballpark as an MC, especially as The Beatles were taking their time to get out. I was trying to entertain a crowd that was shouting, ‘Beatles, Beatles, Beatles.’The dressing room was chaos. There were loads of people there. The press tried to get passes for their kids and the singer Joan Baez was in there. Any local celebrity, who was in town, was in the dressing room. They were having a party in there. They were having a perfectly wonderful time, while I was freezing my buns off on second base ’Emperor’ Gene NelsonThe Beatles Off The Record, Keith BadmanThe Beatles took to the stage at 9.27pm, and performed 11 songs: ‘Rock And Roll Music’, ‘She’s A Woman’, ‘If I Needed Someone’, ‘Day Tripper’, ‘Baby’s In Black’, ‘I Feel Fine’, ‘Yesterday’ ‘I Wanna Be Your Man’, ‘Nowhere Man’, ‘Paperback Writer’, and ‘Long Tall Sally’.The group knew it was to be their final concert. Recognising its significance, John Lennon and Paul McCartney took a camera onto the stage, with which they took pictures of the crowd, the rest of the group, and themselves at arm’s length “Before one of the last numbers, we actually set up this camera, I think it had a fisheye, a wide-angle lens. We set it up on the amplifier and Ringo came off the drums, and we stood with our backs to the audience and posed for a photograph, because we knew that was the last show.”George HarrisonAs The Beatles made their way to Candlestick Park, Paul McCartney asked their press officer Tony Barrow to make a recording of the concert on audio cassette, using a hand-held recorder. The cassette lasted 30 minutes on each side, and, as Barrow didn’t flip it during the show, the recording cut off during final song ‘Long Tall Sally’ “There was a sort of end of term spirit thing going on, and there was also this kind of feeling amongst all of us around The Beatles, that this might just be the last concert that they will ever do. I remember Paul, casually, at the very last minute, saying, ‘Have you got your cassette recorder with you?’ and I said, ‘Yes, of course.’ Paul then said, ‘Tape it will you? Tape the show,’ which I did, literally just holding the microphone up in the middle of the field. As a personal souvenir of the occasion, it was a very nice thing to have and the only difference was that it wasn’t a spectacular occasion. It was nothing like Shea Stadium, there was nothing special about it at all, except that The Beatles did put in extra ad-libs and link material which they hadn’t put in before on any other occasion ”Tony BarrowBarrow gave the original tape of the Candlestick Park concert to McCartney. He also made a single copy, which was kept in a locked drawer in Barrow’s office desk. The recording has since become widely circulated on bootlegs, although quite how is not known.At San Francisco airport, as our plane prepared to take off, Paul’s head came over the top of my seat from the row behind: ‘Did you get anything on tape?’ I passed the cassette recorder back to him: ‘I got the lot, except that the tape ran out in the middle of Long Tall Sally.’ He asked if I had left the machine running between numbers to get all the announcements and the boys’ ad lib remarks. I said: ‘It’s all there from the guitar feedback before the first number.’ Paul was clearly chuffed to have such a unique souvenir of what would prove to be an historic evening – the farewell stage show from the Fab Four.Back in London I kept the concert cassette under lock and key in a drawer of my office desk, making a single copy for my personal collection and passing the original to Paul for him to keep. Years later my Candlestick Park recording re-appeared in public as a bootleg album. If you hear a bootleg version of the final concert that finishes during Long Tall Sally it must have come either from Paul’s copy or mine, but we never did identify the music thief!The final show saw perhaps a slightly more energetic performance than usual from The Beatles, and was longer than their usual 20-25 minute duration. They barely paused between songs, although their on-stage patter was notably looser and less scripted than normal.Although I didn’t fancy my chances of making a brilliant recording of the concert, one thing in my favour was the great distance between the stage and the stands at this particular venue. Because of this, I guessed I might be able to capture sound from the stage without picking up too much of the non-stop screams and shouts of the fans coming from the stands. The fact that it was an open-air gig also helped. In an enclosed auditorium it would have been impossible to pick up the sound of the music without picking up too much crowd noise.When the last of the supporting acts came off stage I went out on the field ahead of the boys. When John, Paul, George and Ringo ran out across the grass a roar of approval went up from the stands and, as they did a quickie tune-up on stage, each chord they played caused a further roar.One of the US deejays in our travelling party, who I had prevented from recording an earlier concert on the tour, saw me holding my mike up in the air and mimicked my words of warning back to me: ‘On Brian Epstein’s orders there must be no recording of the performances. Please turn off.’ With a finger to my lips, I indicated to him to shut up, I didn’t want extraneous voices on my ‘official’ concert recording.Up on stage one of the boys yelled ‘Hello’ to test his voice mike and in another moment the group tore into Chuck Berry’s ‘Rock And Roll Music’ Particularly revealing are McCartney’s comments before ‘Paperback Writer’, during which he questions the group’s future; and ‘Long Tall Sally’, which may have carried a veiled reference to the withdrawn ‘butcher’ artwork for Yesterday… And Today.“Thank you! Thank you very much everybody, and hello, good evening. We’d like to carry on with a song, not surprisingly, by, er, written by George. And this song was on our Rubber Soul LP. And the song is called ‘If I Needed, er, Someone’!Paul McCartneyThank you everybody, thank you. We’d like to carry on now, er, carry on together, at will – one together and all for one – with another number that used to be a single record back in, er… long time ago. And this one’s about the naughty lady called ‘Day Tripper’!John LennonThank you! Thank you. We’d like to carry on with something that’s very old indeed. And this one was recorded in about 1959, and it’s called ‘I Feel Fine’.George HarrisonLike to carry on with a song from Yesterday… And Today. And this was a single as well. And it features Paul singing a very nice song called ‘Yesterday’ George HarrisonThank you very much everybody. Thank you. And it’s, er, it’s a bit chilly. We’d like to do the next number now which is a special request, for all the wonderful backroom boys on this tour. And the song is ‘I Wanna Be Your Man’, and to sing it, Ringo!Paul McCartneyThank you Ringo. Lovely working with you, Ringo. We’d like to do another song now from our BBC [sic] album. And this ones called “He’s a real ‘Nowhere Man’, sitting in his nowhere land”. Oh yeah!John LennonWe’d like to carry on, I think. We’re not really sure yet. I’d like to carry on, certainly. Definitely. Well, shall we just watch this for a bit? Just watch it. The next song is called ‘Paperback Writer’.Paul McCartneyThank you very much everybody. Everybody, wonderful. Frisco, butchered. We’d like to say that, erm, it’s been wonderful being here, in this wonderful sea air. Sorry about the weather. And we’d like to ask you to join in and, er, clap, sing, talk, do anything. Anyway, the song is… good night.Paul McCartney, introducing ‘Long Tall Sally’Just before leaving the stage, John Lennon teasingly played the opening bars of ‘In My Life’, before running off to join the rest of the group backstage.The Beatles were quickly taken to the airport in an armoured car. They flew from San Francisco to Los Angeles, arriving at 12.50am. During the flight George Harrison was heard to exclaim: “That’s it, then. I’m not a Beatle anymore.”

This is the ONLY example of this extremely hard to find LP (far more RARE than the 'butcher' cover) that I have EVER found, and I have been attempting to collect Beatles rare LPS since the early 1980s! I truly believe I will NEVER see this extreme rarity ever again in my life, ESPECIALLY one in this wonderful condition! ALL seams are IN TACT and in great condition, especially for this particular VJ Beatles LP, which is notoriously infamous for having weak seams that usually separate and/or rip apart. The last copy that was listed here on eBay had over half of it's lower seam ripped apart and beyond repair! Here's your chance to own a copy with absolutely NO major issues to it's cover nor it's LP!!! You had better take advantage of this auction! However, please DONT take my word for it! The following is what Mr Perry Cox had to say about this LP and especially it's very special cover: I sent multiple pics of this original set to whom I consider to be THE FOREMOST expert throughout the world of collecting Beatles rarities! Do you want to know exactly what Mr. Perry Cox (Renowned AND multiple published Beatles expert) had to say about it??? Please pay CLOSE attention to the following description! Don't take my word for it, TAKE Mr Cox's word for it! The following is what he emailed to me about my extremely rare Intro Beatles LP, AFTER examining the multiple pics I sent him: "Your cover looks VERY nice! I do see a few MINOR issues: 1 crease lower left, minor wear areas, etc, BUT certainly better than a good percentage of them." Conservatively I see it (the COVER) as a VG+++ to NM- based on images. Record is ALWAYS hard to grade from images, but if it makes the same grade as the cover I'd think $7,500 to $10,000 range. Anything is possible of course with auctions!" -Perry CoxOn Jul-31-24 at 18:13:42 PDT, seller added the following is the ONLY example of this extremely hard to find LP (far more RARE than the 'butcher' cover) that I have EVER found, and I have been attempting to collect Beatles rare LPS since the early 1980s!
