Description

Beatles In-Store Framed Album Display Prototype (Capitol, 1977). This stunning display is as unique as it is eyecatching. The Capitol marketing department created this prototype display and considered producing copies for major outlet stores. Ultimately, Capitol decided the display was too costly, so copies were never produced, which makes this beauty one of a kind. From the top, the contents include a while vinyl version of "The Beatles" album (the "White Album"), a picture disc of "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band," a red vinyl version of the first disc of the two-disc "The Beatles 1962-1966," and a blue vinyl version of the first disc of the two-disc "The Beatles 1967-1970." The display also includes miniature versions of each album cover, as well as the Capitol logo, set against a black silk background. The frame is a generous 27.25" x 36.25", all the better to blow the minds of any of your Beatle-lovin' friends and make your Beatle-lovin' non-friends suddenly friendly.
