Here are some Beatles items that our auction house, Nate D. Sanders (http://www.NateDSanders.com), has sold:
The Beatles Last Concert Poster as a Touring Band, From 29 August 1966 at Candlestick Park — First Printing
The Beatles concert poster from 29 August 1966 at Candlestick Park in San Francisco, their last performance as a touring band. Original printing bears the yellow union bug at bottom right, very rare as one of only approximately 300 printed for the event. Poster #AOR-1.115 was designed by 1960s designer Wes Wilson, featuring a yin yang inspired symbol of the Union Jack and United States flags above a stylistic photograph of the Fab Four. Printed on card stock measuring 17.125″ x 24.125″. Poster is featured in Paul Grushkin’s book “The Art of Rock Posters from Presley to Punk”, page 64. Approximate 1.5″ closed tear at right mid-low margin, and .5″ closed tear at upper left margin. Minimal creasing, and no pinholes or mounting remnants. Displays beautifully with bright colors, in very good plus condition. Sold for $6,038.
George Harrison’s sitar from 1965, almost certainly the one he used to record ”Norwegian Wood”, the Beatles song that not only launched ”The Great Sitar Explosion” in rock music, but also deepened Harrison’s involvement with Indian music, its culture and the Hindu religion that would shape the rest of his life. More than any guitar that Harrison used during his career with the Beatles and as a solo artist, the sitar is perhaps the instrument most closely associated with Harrison, who was first introduced to it in August of 1965 by David Crosby before buying his own and using it to record ”Norwegian Wood” on 12 October 1965. Sold for $62,500.
The original Ludwig drum kit used for the recording of ”Love Me Do”, The Beatles’ first single on their first album ”Please Please Me”, released on 22 March 1963 and ushering in Beatlemania. The session was recorded on 11 September 1962 at EMI London, with this recording of ”Love Me Do” used on the Beatles’ first album ”Please Please Me” as well as the first Beatles U.S. release of ”Love Me Do” and the 1982 re-release of the song. In addition to ”Love Me Do”, this Ludwig drum kit is also heard on ”P.S. I Love You”, which plays on the B-side of the British single and on the ”Please Please Me” album. The kit was played by Andy White during the recording session, who played with the Fab Four that day, with Ringo playing tambourine on ”Love Me Do”. Kit comprises a 14” x 22” bass drum, 16” x 16” floor tom, 9” x 13” tom-tom (which is date-stamped 1956 inside) and 5.5” x 14” snare. Drum head is new. The original Black Diamond Pearl wrapping is present and matches exactly the photo of White playing the drum kit. From the personal collection of Clive Edwards, who studied drum playing under Reg Weller, one of Andy White’s best friends. Weller procured the kit for Edwards after White secured an endorsement deal with Ajax drums. With an LOA from Thea White, the widow of Andy White. Sold for $67,500.
Lot of exceptional Beatles items, including a ”Please Please Me” album signed by all four, without inscription. The Beatles’ first LP, ”Please Please Me” is here signed on the verso of the album cover in blue ink by Paul McCartney, John Lennon, Ringo Starr and George Harrison. Framed to a size of 35.5” x 23”. Not examined out of frame. Some wear to edges, light toning and discoloration. Overall in good condition. With Roger Epperson COA for all four signatures.
Lot also includes a John Lennon signed and handwritten Happy New Year card for 1978. Lennon writes, ”To Stan & Jan, Happy Holidays / love / John Yoko Sean”. Lennon then hand draws doodles, which appear to be little portraits of him, Yoko and Sean. Card measures 6.5” x 10” unfolded. Accompanied by original envelope postmarked 19 December 1977 from New York, all framed to a size of 25” x 22.25”. Not examined out of frame but card appears near fine. With Roger Epperson COA. Sold for $28,750.
Contract rider for the Beatles 28 August 1965 concert in San Diego at Balboa Stadium, signed by the ”fifth Beatle,” their manager Brian Epstein. This concert was a particularly well-documented event in rock and roll history symbolizing Beatlemania; it was added last-minute to the itinerary of their 1965 North America tour in response to popular demand, and an incident immediately followed the show in which the Beatles’ tour bus broke down and was damaged by a frenzied mob of crazed fans. Typed rider is also signed by a representative from the event purchaser Sight and Sound Productions. The Beatles’ live performance requirements are spelled out in the eleven point rider, including security considerations and crowd control. Also present is their famous requirement that they not play before a segregated audience. Rider arranges for the Fab Four’s transportation from Los Angeles to San Diego for the concert and guarantees the following terms: ”not less than 150 uniformed officers” were to be provided and more if necessary; a ”strong fence or barrier…to prevent any of the audience from climbing over”; also a ”platform for Ringo Starr and his drums” and a high-fidelity sound system equipped with a ”first class sound engineer”; a dressing room with ”four cots, mirrors, an ice cooler, portable TV set and clean towels”; a guest list not to exceed 50 complimentary tickets; one press conference and no further media engagements at the event; prohibition of ticket sales in advance of 31 May 1965; transportation including ”Two seven-passenger Cadillac limousines (air-conditioned if possible) with chauffeurs” and prohibition of unauthorized merchandise sales and bootlegging at the show. Incidentally, the Beatles encountered transportation snafus both coming and going – the airline workers’ strike coincided with their planned flight to San Diego and a touring coach instead brought the band from LA via Highway 1. Three-page document on 3 sheets measures 8.5” x 11”. Toning, creasing and staple punctures to the upper left, else near fine. A scarce record of the Beatles. Sold for $10,780.
Charming Beatles Autographs on a Photo With Funny Inscriptions by John, Paul, George and Ringo — “Why Don’t You Get A Job? Good heavens from John Lennon”
Charming publicity photograph of The Beatles sipping from china tea cups, with all of the Beatles autographs on verso in various inks with facetious messages by The Fab Four: “To Roy, why don’t you get a job? good heavens from John Lennon” with a hand-drawn crucifix motif; “To Roy you’re fired! you may think this is a joke, but if we come back soon, you’ll see…Paul McCartney”; “Why don’t you just piss off! George Harrison”; and, “To Roy, the best barman in L.A, Ringo Starr”. Additionally inscribed and signed “To Mother Roy it’s been fun nowing [sic] you Neil Aspinall” and further annotated in an unknown hand. Glossy photo measures 6″ x 8″. Diagonal crease across upper right of photo, some dampstaining and fingerprints on verso, else near fine. A rare, fantastic piece showing the Fab Four’s playful wit. Sold for $10,470.
Excellent Beatles signed concert program – without inscription, for a concert held on 25 April 1963 at Fairfield Hall in Croydon, Surrey. On the two-page spread devoted to The Beatles, each of the Fab Four sign next to their photo in blue ballpoint, ”I Love You / Yours / John Lennon / xxx”, ”Love, / Paul McCartney / xxx”, ”George Harrison / xx” and ”Love / Ringo Starr / [star sign]xx”. The event was organized by London concert promoter John Smith, and also featured John Leyton (who cancelled his appearance), The Big Three, Billy Kramer, and several more acts, with The Beatles headlining. Orange program bound by two staples runs six pages and measures 6.875” x 9.5”. Separation starting along bottom seam, and creasing throughout. Small hole to top right of cover. Overall in very good condition. With Roger Epperson COA for all four signatures. A rare uninscribed Beatles concert program, signed at the cusp of their global fame. Sold for $9,375.
