This wonderfully composed Type 1 photo depicts the moments before Beatlemania was fully unleashed on America. The occasion was the Fab Four’s appearance on the Ed Sullivan on the night of February 9, 1964. This photo shows the band during the previous day’s rehearsal for the show, accompanied by the unmistakable host, Ed Sullivan. The following night the band would perform five songs while 73 million viewers watched from home. This was the moment The Beatles became the biggest band in the world. The Type 1 photo measures 7” x 9” and shows edge wear and toning throughout. The reverse has the original caption slug along with several hand written notations, printing marks, and paper and glue residue. The photo has been encapsulated and graded a Type 1 by PSA.
