<B>Apple Boutique "A Is For Apple" Poster (Apple, 1967).</B></I> The story of the Apple Boutique is a fascinating look at how not to run a business. In 1967, Paul envisioned a "beautiful place to buy beautiful things," and the Beatles rented a building at 94 Baker Street in London. They hired an art collective known as the Fool (Simon Posthuma, Marijke Koeger, Simon Hayes, and Barry Finch) to design murals, clothing, posters, and more (they even painted John's acoustic guitar and Rolls Royce, plus Eric Clapton's Gibson SG guitar in wild, swirling designs). Mismanagement and disillusion soon set in, and in eight months, it was all over. This is a second printing of one of the Fool-designed posters originally sold at the boutique (before they closed the store and gave everything away). The poster measures 22" x 29" and is in VG+ condition.
