[The Beatles]. Signed Photograph. Rare vintage glossy 10 x 8 inch Capitol Records publicity photo of The Beatles walking down the street, signed in blue ballpoint by John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison (twice), and in faded ink by Ringo Starr such that his signature is essentially no more than an impression; a similarly faded inscription is present to the lower left. Heavy overall creasing, tears and tack holes to edges, skipping and fading to signatures (All you need is...Ringo!), otherwise very good condition. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks, stating that the autographs were obtained when the Beatles visited Miami to perform on the Ed Sullivan Show in February 1964.
After an appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show in New York City on February 9th, 1964, the “Fab Four” traveled to Miami Beach. There the group made their second appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show inside the Deauville Hotel. About 2,600 people attended to hear a set that included: She Loves You, I Saw Her Standing There, I Wanna Be Your Man, From Me To You, and This Boy.
The Beatles experienced huge popularity on the British record charts in early 1963, but record companies in the United States did not immediately follow up with releases of their own and it was nearly a year before the Beatles became widely popular in the US, around the time of the present signing. In the US, Capitol Records modified the Beatles' albums from their original configurations, altering track listings and artwork. This was done because albums released in the US contained fewer tracks, typically no more than 11 or 12, due to differences in how publishing royalties were calculated in the two countries. Also, in the American market it was expected for albums to include the current hit single, whereas British albums typically did not duplicate songs released as singles. This resulted in 11 albums being released by Capitol from 1964 to 1966, culled from seven UK albums and various singles. This trend continued until 1967, when the Beatles signed a new recording contract with EMI, dissatisfied with how Capitol and other companies around the world were issuing their work in almost unrecognizable forms, and now insisting upon full approval rights concerning album titles and cover art, track listing and running order in the United States; their albums were released unmodified starting with Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
