(ACTUAL IMAGES)

ON SATURDAY AUGUST 3, 1963, AFTER CLOSE TO 300 APPEARANCES AT THE CAVERN CLUB, SPANNING TWO AND A HALF YEARS, THIS DAY WAS THE LAST.
THE VENUE HAD PLAYED PERHAPS THE VITAL ROLE IN PREPARING THEM FOR "THE BIG TIME" OR AS ED SULLIVAN WOULD SAY . . . "THE REEEALLY BIG SHEW". TWO DAYS LATER, THE BEATLES HIT THE ROAD AGAIN, AND ON MONDAY AUGUST 5th, HEADED FOR ABBOTSFIELD PARK, CHASSEN ROAD, URMSTON, LANCASHIRE. The urmston show was an interesting engagement: the beatles headed a four-act bill playing at this annual south manchester "bank holiday" event, and IS where this beautiful blue autograph album page was signed.

measuring 4½" X 3¾", THESE AUTOGRAPHS ARE JUST STUNNING IN PERSON AND STAND OUT WITH GORGEOUS BRILLIANCE. ALL FOUR BEATLES HAVE SIGNED IN MATCHING BLUE BALLPOINT. NOTABLE HIGHLIGHT IS " THE BEATLES " WRITTEN  BY GEORGE ABOVE HIS SIGNATURE AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE.

ADDITIONALLY, A MOST FANTASTIC ADDITION TO THIS SET OF AUTOGRAPHS FEATURES TWO NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN PHOTOGRAPHS TAKEN ON THIS DAY AT THE URMSTON SHOW. THEY WERE SNAPPED BY THE INDIVIDUAL WHO ACQUIRED THESE SIGNATURES. NOTICE THE MOST PRIMITIVE STAGE SET-UP, AND THE YOUNG BEATLE FANS EAGER AND BURSTING WITH ENERGY.

TAKE NOTE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT HISTORICAL FACTOR OF THE BEATLES EVIDENT IN THESE TWO PHOTOS. LOOK AT THEIR WARDROBE AND APPEARANCE: THE BLACK TURTLENECKS, THE FRESH HAIRCUTS. THIS LOOK WILL COME IN HANDY, FOR ON AUGUST 22ND IN THE TOWN OF BOURNEMOUTH, in THEIR HOTEL ROOM AT THE PALACE COURT, PHOTOGRAPHER ROBERT FREEMAN TOOK THE INFAMOUS "HALF-SHADOW" PHOTO FOR the cover of THEIR SECOND UK PARLOPHONE ALBUM "WITH THE BEATLES", and used again in january 1964 for capitol's "meet the beatles" album cover in america.

to keep with the theme of THIS STRIKING AUTOGRAPH SET, it HAS BEEN PROFESSIONALLY FRAMED IN A CLASSY BLACK WOOD FEATURING THE INFAMOUS COVER PHOTO, TAKEN BY ROBERT FREEMAN ON AUGUST 22, 1963 FOR THE LP "WITH THE BEATLES". it's MATTED IN A DEEP, RICH "INDIGO" BLUE, with OVERALL DIMENSIONS of 20" X 16½" . PLEASE NOTE THAT THE INTEGRITY OF THE ENTIRE SIGNED PAGE HAS BEEN RESPECTED AND IS FULLY EXPOSED WITHOUT the MATTe CUTTING OFF THE EDGES. transparent photograph corner holders ARE UTILIZED to holdthe signed PAGE in place (see final image below).
