Description

THE FAB FOUR trounce Roy Orbison on their home turf

Original vintage 8 x 10.5 tour program for the Beatles and Roy Orbison concerts held from May 18 to June 9 [no year], considerately signed in blue ballpoint next to their respective interior images on the second page “Paul McCartney,” and in green ballpoint “John Lennon,” “George Harrison,” and “Ringo Starr.” The back cover also bears several signatures of supporting musicians and acts from the tour. Orbison was originally the headliner, but after only one week of the tour, the Beatles completely dominated the show, and Orbison was reduced to second fiddle. At that time the programs went back to the printers, who changed the billing on the cover. In fine condition, with fragile binding, a couple of partial page separations, a few ripples, and scattered light creasing. A very presentable set of Beatles signatures acquired at the very beginning of Beatlemania! JSA/Roger Epperson (REAL) Auction LOA and RRAuction COA.
