Description

The Beatles Signed Please Please Me Album Cover. A fantastic vintage album cover for the British Parlophone Records edition of the Beatles' first LP, autographed on the reverse by the band members in large, bold script written in blue fountain pen. The signatures are circa mid-1963.

Rush-released on March 22, 1963 in the UK to capitalize on the success of singles "Please Please Me" and "Love Me Do," the album was the first of what would be many groundbreaking, chart-topping LPs released by the Beatles over a relatively brief seven years. It continues to score high on numerous Greatest Song and Greatest Album lists (including the #39 spot on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list).

Signed copies of the album are very rare and highly desirable. The cover is in Fine condition with some wear to the edges and corners, light discoloration, and a small area of smearing to the "e" in Lennon's name. Accompanied by a COA from Beatles historian Frank Caiazzo and a James Spence Authentication auction LOA.
