Rare and historically significant color vintage 5 x 3.5 postcard photo from the Peppermint Lounge in New York City, signed on the reverse in blue ballpoint, “Ringo Starr,” “Paul McCartney,” and “John Lennon,” obtained after their performance on the Ed Sullivan Show, and signed in pencil, “George.” Encapsulated in a plastic PSA/DNA authentication holder, grading the piece “NM-MT 8.” Trimmed right edge, moderate bisecting folds, affecting a couple of letters of McCartney’s and Lennon’s signatures, and through Starr’s signature, and scattered wrinkling, and mild toning, otherwise very good condition.
After their historic television performance on the Ed Sullivan Show on February 9, 1964, John, Paul, and Ringo went to the Peppermint Lounge to celebrate. George was back at the hotel, recuperating from a cold. John, Paul and Ringo’s signatures were acquired by a waitress at the club, who was serving the band all night long. George’s signature was obtained later by a Beatles staff member and returned to the waitress, as she was initially disappointed at not having signatures of all four band members. Accompanied by two letters from Beatles expert Frank Caiazzo. First is a letter of authenticity that dates the signatures from February 9, 1964, and states, “There are very few sets in existence which were signed on this, the most important day in Beatle’s history.” Second letter serves as an appraisal for the item. While opinions vary as to how many items the Beatles signed on this most relevant date in rock and roll history (some say they signed less than six items altogether), this is no doubt one of a very small handful.
