Vintage program from the Beatles’ 1963 tour with Chris Montez and Tommy Roe, 8 x 10.25, 14 pages, signed on the back cover in blue ballpoint by Paul McCartney. The consignor notes that the signature was obtained at the Beatles performance that took place at the Rialto Theatre in York, England, on March 13, 1963. After the show, the Beatles set up tables at the front of the stage and held an impromptu signing session for attendees of the concert. In very good condition, with overall creasing, light folds, and moderately heavy handling wear. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks.
Originally planned with Montez and Roe as the headliners—as indicated by the Beatles being listed 5th in the program—the Beatles slid into the headlining spot after the first night of the tour on March 9th. With 'Please Please Me' on its third week at number one, and the highly anticipated release of the debut album of the same name just two weeks away, it was clear that Beatlemania had taken hold.
