THE SET LIST WAS "I SAW HER STANDING THERE", "FROM ME TO YOU", "ALL MY LOVING", "YOU REALLY GOT A HOLD ON ME", "ROLL OVER BEETHOVEN", "BOYS", "TILL THERE WAS YOU", "SHE LOVES YOU", "MONEY (THAT'S WHAT I WANT)" AND "TWIST AND SHOUT". BUT THE SCREAMING THROUGHOUT THE 'AUTUMN TOUR' WAS SO LOUD THAT NO ONE - NOT EVEN THE BEATLES - COULD HEAR MORE THAN A FEW NOTES OF IT. FAB 4 COLLECTIBLES PROUDLY OFFERS THIS SPECTACULAR, HIGH-GRADE AND COMPLETE " THE BEATLES SHOW" AUTUMN PROGRAMME SIGNED BY THE BEATLES, ACQUIRED SOMETIME DURING THE DURATION OF THE TOUR. THIS PARTICULAR VERSION OF THE PROGRAMME HAS THE ULTRA-RARE GLOSSY "WHITE" FINISH COLORED COVER. THE "GOLD" AND "SILVER" FOIL MATERIAL VARIATIONS ARE THE MORE COMMON. SIGNED IN BLUE BALLPOINT JUST WEEKS PRIOR TO THE GROUP'S HISTORIC FIRST VISIT TO AMERICA, THE AUTOGRAPHS ARE CRISP, DEEP AND STRIKING - AND EACH BEATLE SIGNS NEAR THEIR RESPECTIVE PHOTO ON THE TITLE PAGE. NICE ATTRACTIONS HERE ARE THAT PAUL SIGNS TWICE, AND GEORGE ADDS "LOVE FROM". JOHN, PAUL AND GEORGE ALSO ADD "XXX" AS WELL. THE PHOTOS AND SCANS DO NOT TRULY DISPLAY THE BEAUTY AND CLARITY OF THESE AUTOGRAPHS. THEY ARE MAGNIFICENT, COMPLETE EXAMPLES FROM THIS PERIOD, AND WOULD GRADE AN UNDENIABLE NEAR MINT. THERE IS A PINHOLE AT EACH CORNER THAT GOES THROUGH THE PROGRAMME TO THE BACK COVER, BUT THEY ARE NOT ON THE FRONT COVER. THESE TINY HOLES DO NOT DETRACT OR AFFECT THE OVERALL BEAUTY OF THE SIGNED PAGE AND THE PROGRAMME REMAINS IN EXCELLENT TO NEAR MINT CONDITION. IT IS OBVIOUS THIS PROGRAMME HAS BEEN VERY WELL STORED AND PRESERVED OVER THE YEARS, AND ALL INSIDE PAGES REMAIN CLEAN. EACH AND EVERY PAGE RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL WHITE TONE WITH NO YELLOWING OR AGING WHATSOEVER. ALL PAGES REMAIN INTACT AND SOLID, STILL TIGHTLY ENFORCED BY THE STAPLES THAT HOLD THE PROGRAMME TOGETHER. ACCOMPANIED BY LIFETIME LETTERS OF AUTHENTICITY FROM FRANK CAIAZZO & FAB 4 COLLECTIBLES.
