Description

Scarce fully signed portrait of the Beatles in the Bahamas while filming Help!

Vintage glossy 8 x 10 full-length photo of the Beatles on location in the Bahamas during filming for their second motion picture, Help!, signed and inscribed in blue ballpoint, "To Lois from us [illegible], George Harrison," "John Lennon," "Ringo Starr," and "Paul McCartney”; George also signed cleanly on the reverse. Double-matted and framed with glass on both sides to an overall size of 14.5 x 16.75. In very good condition, with overall creasing, short edge tears, a circular surface impression, and skipping to the McCartney and Harrison signatures. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from REAL.

On February 22, 1965, the band flew from London to the Bahamas, with a stop in New York, to commence filming on their second movie, Help! Although the Bahamas sequences would be the last to appear in the completed film, it was the first location on the shooting schedule. Authentic examples of Beatles signatures from this period are scarce as they were virtually inaccessible to their fans.
