THE BEATLES A Beatlemaniac's Scrapbook (This has to be one of the
cutest Beatles items of memorabilia that we have ever seen.
Somewhere between 1962 & early 1963, a young Liverpudlian girl
went to see the current hot local band many times at the Cavern &
around the Liverpool area. During that time she collected newspaper
clippings & ALL FOUR of the band's autographs in 1963, each
on a separate autograph card!)
Being a Paul fan, she had
obtained Paul's autograph in late 1962& that was already lovingly
taped into her scrapbook. Being nearly fifty years old, the tape has
yellowed somwhat giving you a lovely sense that what you are looking
at is a slice of history, not just a set of autographs with various
newspaper clippings. The personality of the original owner and her
infatuation with the local heroes oozes out, giving you a rare insight
into what life must have been like for a Beatle fan in those
pre-Beatlemania days before they made it big & moved to London.
The scrapbook itself, complete with hand drawn & teddybear
enhanced John, Paul, George, Ringo, Beatles cover, measures 10" x
11" & although several of the items inside are now loose as a result of
the age of the sticky tape, still contains such gems as NEMS adverts
for Please Please Me single, pictures of the band, local adverts for gigs
at such exotic places as Grafton Ballroom in January 1963, Queens
Hall Widnes in February 1963, clippings discussing the making of an LP
at the Cavern, a back page from an early tour programme etc. It also
contains a 1962 period Paul McCartney autograph lovingly taped onto
page seven & four loose autograph cards, one with each band
member's signature that were once taped in place in the book. These
autographs were obtained at the Cavern in 1963. Very unusual is that
George has signed 'harrison' with a small H. This is a fantastic
one-off that transports you back in time to those amazing days just
before the world lit the blue touchpaper ....).
