Vintage red ballpoint signatures, “John Lennon,” “George Harrison,“ and “Ringo Starr,” and a blue ballpoint signature, “Beatles Paul McCartney,” on an off-white 5.75 x 4.5 album page. Page is also signed by Bruce Channel. Toning along left edge from old tape, some other light toning, and a couple of light creases, otherwise fine condition. At the height of his fame around 1962, Channel toured Britain and was once supported by the Beatles, who hadn't released a record yet and were still relatively unknown. Channel had a 1962 hit with ‘Hey Baby,’ featuring harmonica accompaniment by Delbert McClinton. John Lennon was especially intrigued by McClinton’s harmonica style and several of the Beatles’ early hits would feature Lennon’s own harmonica play, unmistakably inspired by McClinton. The Beatles and Channel played together only once, at New Brighton’s Tower Ballroom, on June 21, 1962, where these signatures were most likely acquired.
