Description
A HARD DAY'S NIGHT and HELP!. United Artists, 1965.
US Double Bill poster, unfolded, linen backed, unframed: 60 x 40 in. (152 x 102 cm).
This poster was designed for a short screening of a double bill of the first two Beatles' films.
As this double bill had a limited release, not many posters were printed, especially in this large size, which was designed for drive-ins and special displays. The poster was printed on heavier paper stock and in far fewer quantities. Owing to their size many of these poster were either destroyed or folded. However, this piece has remained in its original state.
A Hard Day's Night is a British musical comedy, directed by Richard Lester, which was released in 1964 at the peak of Beatlemania. The film stars The Beatles and comically shows two 'regular' days in their lives. Help! is a musical comedy directed by Richard Lester, after his success with A Hard Day's Night the previous year. The Beatles are the main stars of the film, however it also features many other famous actors. The film premiered on the 29th July 1965 at the London Pavilion Theatre, and a week later the film's soundtrack was released as an album.
