HISTORICAL NOTE:
The original photos/negatives sat undiscovered for 45 years in the home of BOB BONIS, who was the road manager (1964-1966) of the Beatles and amateur photographer.
He had special access to the Beatles’ everyday activities.
These photos were NEVER published.
On his death, Bonis's Son, Alex  took the photos and negatives to Larry Marion for appraisal. He found them to be priceless!
Bonis and Marion formed the Not Fade Away Gallery, Inc. With great excitement to the rock and roll world, the photos were shown to the public for the first time at a Gala called, "The British are Coming" in Soho NYC -- March 2009.  Such luminaries as Bob Gruen, Theodora Richards, Lauren Iaunuzzi, etc. attended. Patrons were offered first editions numbered and very limited (100) per run of each for 00.
In 2009, the Owner of these photos attended the showing (as well) and was able to see these very photos in their original versions at the No Fade Away Gallery in Soho, NYC.
They also toured the country and received great critical acclaim as well as being the subject of a book, "The Lost Beatles Photos by HarperCollins".
HIGHLY sought after and (no doubt) unaffordable today. Those offered today are (no doubt) open limited editions.
EVEN though these are discontinued AND 2nd editions, they still make a good investment.
These (at one time) may have been offered on Amazon..Excellent quality!
An asset to any early Beatles Collection!
In these images the Beatles are seen performing at Crosley Field, Cincinnati Ohio. (Please refer to the pictured concert ticket in this listing to be used for reference purposes only )
These are early images before the Fab Four became wildly famous.
Very hard to find, even 2nd editions..
There is no toning, fading, water damage and the dust back paper is intact.
Ready to hang and enjoy!
This is a rare offering at a desirable price.. Won't last!!!!!.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Two more make the FAB 4. (John and Ringo) offered in another listing.
ASK FOR SPECIAL PRICE FOR ALL!!!!
