Full, unused ticket from Suffolk Downs, Boston, MA on August 18, 1966, 4 x 1.5. Matted and framed with a color photo and commemorative plaque to an overall size of 11 x 13.5. In fine condition. During their final concert tour, The Beatles played to 25,000 fans at Suffolk Downs, marking their one concert appearance at such a venue. Co-promoter Gerald Roberts failed to mention The Beatles would be taking up residence when he persuaded the track’s owner, baseball executive Bill Veeck, to rent the facility for a paltry $1000. Roberts remembered that “after a barrage of choice expletives he screamed ‘you never told me it was The Beatles’ Roberts replied, ‘Bill, you never asked.’ The volatile Veeck, after a brief pause, responded, ‘You…you conned a con man.’ This full, unused ticket originated from Roberts himself, who discovered a stash of unsold tickets in the late 1970s, and comes with copy of a Gerald Roberts LOA.
