Original Beatles Yellow Submarine in-store promotional motorized display. The psychedelic colored display measures approximately 4.5 feet tall and is in very good condition, with expected age wear, some light wear to edges, toning and light soiling to lighter panels, corner bumps, and a few trivial holes to stand.
Quite an eye-catching, and, of course, very rare item, this motorized display promotes The Beatles’ January 1969 album release of the soundtrack to their animated feature film, Yellow Submarine. Powered by a battery-operated motor, the Capitol/Apple Records cardboard display features The Beatles in black light enabled printing. The submarine at the top rotates, thereby attracting customers to select a copy of the album from the bin that holds a generous supply of albums. A sturdy cardboard pole extends from the rotating yellow submarine into the cardboard base. Due to the fragility of this promotional display, as is the case with other similar oversized and multi-part displays of the era, they were usually discarded by record outlets because of their size. The few that survived were generally the result of being rescued by fans. Finding them today, intact and in working condition is quite uncommon.
