ACCORDING TO HIGHLY RESPECTED
BEATLES AUTOGRAPH PREMIER EXPERT FRANK CAIAZZO,
"PROMOTIONAL CARDS containing photographs of The Beatles
which were PRODUCED AND DISTRIBUTED by Parlophone Records
or The Beatles themselves were often signed by the four members
of the group and given away in small quantities.
Now they are extremely rare and very desirable,
as few have actually survived intact."

In October of 1962,  Parlophone Records produced a small quantity
of promotional photocards with pictures TAKEN while The Beatles
were in the studio.  Parlophone's second and final issue card
was introduced in March of 1963 and PRODUCED in
two sizes : 5¾" X 3½"  and  7½" X 5½".
