Description

The Beatles

Royal Command Performance poster, 1964


(72.4 x 52 cm), paper, backed on linen, near mint condition, with the colours remaining very bright


This piece was designed to commemorate The Beatles' 1963 Royal Command Performance, in the presence of Queen Elizabeth II. Although the poster states that the performance took place at the London Palladium, it actually was held at the Prince of Wales Theatre. The signatures are in the printing. This poster was reproduced. However, the reproductions are larger than this original poster, and also don't include the printing information on the lower border ('Litho by Louis F. Dow Co., U.S.A.')
