Circa 1960s Beatles Signed Associated Press Wire Photograph PSA/DNA Type III

Black-and-white photo of The Beatles, signed on the reverse by all four members of the band: Paul McCartney, John Lennon, Ringo Starr, and George Harrison. Encapsulated by PSA/DNA. Each of the signatures has been scripted in blue ink, with Paul, Ringo, and George also adding "XXX" below their signatures. An added notation (in an unknown hand), reading "Best Wishes Beata," appears in the center of the reverse. This photo of The Beatles, which pictures each of them giving the "thumbs up" sign, was taken on February 23, 1964, during the band's appearance on an English television show titled Big Night Out." Vintage signed photos of The Beatles dating from their early recording days in England have always been highly prized by collectors and this example represents an outstanding example. The photograph (9.5 x 8 inches) has a slightly uneven trim along the right border, as well as a few light creases. Without reference to the trim, the photo is in Very Good to Excellent condition overall.
