Vintage color 6 x 4 postcard of the British Rail Car Carrier SS Maid of Kent, signed and inscribed in blue ballpoint on the correspondence side, “To Jackie, John Lennon,” and “George Harrison,” circa 1966. Matted and framed with seven photos (three of John, three of George, and one of the ship), along with a printed caption explaining how the signatures were acquired which reads: “The postcard is from the SS Maid of Kent ferry, signed by John Lennon and George Harrison who were using the boat whilst Paul and Ringo flew to a gig in Germany…I understand from a former company director that 12 cards were signed in the captain’s office,” to an overall size of 26 x 23. In fine condition, with a light crease along the bottom edge, not affecting either signature. An excellent pair of signatures from the height of Beatlemania. Oversized.
