Hoffman promo card shot on the day of their 1962 ‘Love Me Do’ recording session at Abbey Road

Vintage Parlophone Records promotional photocard from October of 1962, featuring an image of the band working in the recording studio originally taken by Dezo Hoffmann, 5.25 x 3.25, signed on the reverse in blue ballpoint, circa late 1962, by George Harrison, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr.” Matted and framed with a laserprint of the front of a similar card to an overall size of 9 x 11.25. Reverse of the card has been professionally cleaned, including around the signatures. Aforementioned cleaning and a couple of light creases, one touching top of Harrison’s last name, otherwise fine condition. Taken at Abbey Road Studios during their recording session of ‘Love Me Do’ on September 4, 1962, by famed Beatles photographer Dezo Hoffmann, this image shows the group in their final incarnation at the very beginning of their storied career, and is the first promo card with new drummer Ringo.
