Description

Beatles KYA Radio Hand-Painted Wooden Sign for Candlestick Park Concert (San Francisco, 1966). An incredible and unique souvenir of the Beatles last scheduled live concert performance. A 20" x 46" sign on plywood with a hole in each corner for mounting. The text at the top of this rare memento reads as follows: "KYA Radio 1260 and Temple [sic- Tempo] Productions Welcomes [Help! silhouettes] The Beatles North American Tour". It goes on to list the opening acts "Also: The Crykle [sic] Bobby Hebb The Ronettes The Remains" and the date, time, location and admission prices. KYA was the leading Top 40 station in the Bay area for many years. This sign is the first of its type that we've encountered and it shows the expected signs of age and use with various stains and scuffs. Would make a great addition to any Beatles collection.
