Vintage ballpoint signatures, “Best wishes from George Harrison,” “Paul McCartney,” “John Lennon,” and “Ringo Starr,” on a light blue 5 x 3.75 album page, with collector’s notations along top edge, as well as the collector’s drawing of a detailed ‘beetle’ sketch in the upper left. In fine condition. The signatures were acquired on February 17, 1963, during the group’s second appearance at Teddington Studios, Teddington, Middlesex, when The Beatles were performing on ABC television’s Thank Your Lucky Stars. The Beatles were called for rehearsal at 11:00 am and recorded the program later in the afternoon, lip-synching one song, ‘Please Please Me.’ The autographs were obtained by a cameraman named John Rees who worked on the TV show Ready Steady Go. Accompanied by a contemporary color portrait of the band performing on the show. A very early set of signatures as the Beatles were still third on a seven-act bill.
