INCREDIBLE 1966 U.S. AUTHENTIC, BEAUTIFUL AND VERY HISTORIC POSTER FOR THE BEATLES VERY LAST PUBLIC CONCERT EVENT HELD IN SAN FRANCISCO’S CANDLESTICK PARK ON AUGUST 29, 1966
THIS IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE BEATLES CONCERT POSTERS! IN 15 YEARS, THIS IS ONLY THE 3rd TIME EVER I’VE OFFERED THIS HISTORIC POSTER FOR THE BEATLES FINAL PUBLIC CONCERT APPEARANCE AT SAN FRANCISCO’S CANDLESTICK PARK ON THE EVENING OF AUGUST 29, 1966. CLEARLY THIS IS A WORLD-CLASS EXAMPLE OF THIS RARE AND HISTORIC POSTER. IT IS A STUNNING NEAR MINT- EXAMPLE AND A TRULY INCREDIBLE LOOKING POSTER THAT WOULD BE THE CENTERPIECE ANY ROOM! ABSOLUTELY ORIGINAL 1966 ISSUE GUARANTEED AND NOT ONE OF THE MANY REPRODUCTONS OR REPRINTS. This copy retains the high-gloss spot varnish finish required off all originals. As well the proper printing credit appears in the lower right-hand corner in yellow lettering stating: “litho by West Coast Lithograph Co.” SIZE OF THIS POSTER IS JUST SLIGHTLY LARGER THAN 17″ X 24″. IT ALSO LAYS NICE AND FLAT. BACK IS CLEAN WITH SOME VERY LIGHT AGING. THIS POSTER IS TRULY A PIECE OF BEATLES AND ROCK HISTORY! THE PICTURES SHOW JUST HOW STUNNING THIS EXAMPLE REALLY IS. THE POSTER HAS BEEN MUSEUM QUALITY “PRESERVATION” FRAMED IN A VERY HIGH QUALITY FRAME. “NO” ADHESIVES HAVE BEEN USED TO MOUNT THIS POSTER. CLEAR CORNER HOLDERS WERE USED IN IT’S FRAMING. PROTECTIVE UV PLEXI-GLASS HAS BEEN USED TO PREVENT ANY FADING FROM LIGHT EXPOSURE. THE MATTING AND FORAY ARE FIRST RATE! FRAMED SIZE IS 28″ X 35″ X 2″. THIS POSTER WAS THE DESIGN OF NOTED ARTIST, WES WILSON, WHO LATER WENT ONTO TO FAME WITH HIS NOTED PSYCHEDELIC POSTERS FOR FAMED PROMOTER, BILL GRAHAM. THIS POSTER REPRESENTS ONE OF HIS EARLIEST PSYCHEDLIC THEMES. THERE IS NO FADING AT ALL TO THIS EXAMPLE. ALL COLORS ARE COMPLETELY VIBRANT AND BEAUTIFUL. SOME VERY SMALL AREAS OF THE VERY EDGES SHOW SOME LIGHT HANDLING, AND THERE’S A VERY SMALL, VERY LIGHT CREASE ALONG WITH ONE CLEAN PIN HOLE IN EACH OUTER CORNER. EVEN MORE NOTABLE, THIS WAS A USED EXAMPLE THAT WAS POSTED BRIEFLY TO SERVE IT’S PURPOSE OF PROMOTING THIS HISTORIC EVENT! HERE IS YOUR CHANCE TO OWN A TRUE PIECE OF BEATLES HISTORY, AN INCREDIBLE EXAMPLE OF THEIR FINAL CONCERT POSTER. THESE ORIGINAL POSTERS WERE PRINTED ON MEDIUM THICKNESS CARD STOCK. This example retains the high-gloss spot varnish finish required of all originals. As well the proper sharp printing credit appears in the lower right-hand corner in yellow lettering stating: “Litho by West Coast Lithograph Co.” This poster remains one of the most in-demand concert posters of all-time. THIS ITEM WILL COME WITH MY LETTER OF AUTHENTICITY. (Will be shipped in large sturdy well packed box!) Check out the picture(s) and enjoy!
