Fabulous program, 8.25 x 10.75, from The Beatles’ Second Christmas Show, presented at the Hammersmith Odeon from December 24, 1964, to January 16, 1965, signed in blue ballpoint on the inside gate fold by all four; all but Lennon have inscribed to Sharon as well. Lennon, McCartney, and Harrison have signed on the borders, while Ringo has signed directly on his photo. The covers feature droll printed holiday illustrations by John Lennon, taken from the Christmas edition of In His Own Write. Also signed on different pages by Freddie Garrity of Freddie & the Dreamers and twice by outrageous British DJ Jimmy Savile. Light handling wear and wrinkling to covers, as well as a bit of scattered light soiling, otherwise fine condition.
Following the success of The Beatles' Christmas Show in late 1963 and early 1964, manager Brian Epstein decided the group should offer a repeat performance the following year. This program dates from that London event, featuring music, pantomime sketches, comedy, and a number of special guests—some of whom added their signatures as noted. The Beatles closed the show with performances of 11 songs, including ‘Twist And Shout,’ ‘Can't Buy Me Love,’ and ‘A Hard Day's Night.’ A stunning piece of holiday-themed Beatlemania.
