  DESCRIPTION
(ACTUAL SCANS)

WITH ITS PETER MAX-INSPIRED DESIGNS, THE BEATLES WERE SO SATISFIED WITH THE FINISHED PRODUCT OF THE ANIMATED PRODUCTION, THAT THE BAND ACTUALLY AGREED TO FILM A SHORT LIVE ACTION EPILOGUE, THAT PRECEDES THE FINALE NUMBER "ALL TOGETHER NOW."

THE ONE-SHEET MOVIE POSTER FOR THE BEATLES COLORFUL ANIMATED MOTION PICTURE HAS SURFACED FREQUENTLY, BUT THIS - THE MEGA-RARE AND VERY SOUGHT AFTER THREE-SHEET ISSUE - IS A REAL PRIZE FOR COLLECTORS, AND WE HAVE ACQUIRED ONE THAT HAS NEVER SAW THE LIGHT OF DAY OF DISTRIBUTION, AND THIS EXAMPLE IS IN "UN-CIRCULATED", MINT CONDITION !!

MEASURING A TREMENDOUS 81" X 41", STANDARD THREE-SHEET MOVIE POSTERS WERE SENT TO THEATRES PRE-FOLDED IN TWO SECTIONS, AND IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THIS POSTER HAS REMAINED FOLDED SINCE IT'S MANUFACTURING. OTHER THAN THESE FACTORY FOLDS AND CROSSFOLDS, THERE ARE NO FLAWS, WEAR OR ANY DEFECTS AT ALL

FOR THE ULTIMATE IN PRESERVATION PURPOSES FOR THIS GORGEOUS AND PRISTINE EXAMPLE, WE HAVE HAD THE POSTER PROFESSIONALLY ASSEMBLED AND THEN APPLIED TO AN ACID-FREE WOVEN LINEN BACKING. THIS PREVENTS THE POSTER FROM OBTAINING WRINKLES, AND IS THE BEST PROCEDURE FOR HAVING THE POSTER FRAMED, IF ONE WISHES. THIS PROFESSIONAL RESTORATION HAS RENDERED THOSE FACTORY FOLDS AND CROSS-FOLDS VIRTUALLY INVISIBLE.

LOOK AT THE VIBRANT, DEEP AND BRILLIANT COLORS FROM THESE CLOSE-UP IMAGES BELOW. TRULY MAGNIFICENT IN PERSON, AND THE IMAGES DISPLAY A MERE FRACTION OF THE SENSATIONAL DETAILS. ALSO, AN IMPORTANT FACTOR TO NOTE IS THAT THE THREE-SHEET ISSUE IS THE ONLY POSTER VERSION THAT HAS "NOTHING IS REAL !" AT THE TOP. THE ONE-SHEET AND OTHER SIZE VARIATIONS ALL HAVE THE PRINT "IT'S ALL IN THE MIND Y'KNOW !" :

THE THREE-SHEET ISSUE HAS "ELEVEN BEATLE SONGS" INSTEAD OF THE "A DOZEN BEATLE SONGS" PRINT INSIDE THE APPLE.

A TWO-PART NUMBER WAS ALWAYS ISSUED BY THE NATIONAL SCREEN SERVICE TO EVERY MOVIE IN THE UNITED STATES. THE NUMBER FOR YELLOW SUBMARINE IS 68/310. THE FIRST NUMBER (68) IS THE YEAR OF RELEASE - 1968. THE SECOND NUMBER (310) IS THE UNIQUE NUMBER ISSUED TO A MOVIE THAT YEAR. PRIOR TO HAVING THE POSTER PRESERVED ONTO THE LINEN BACKING, WE PHOTOGRAPHED THE AREA OF THE BLANK SIDE OF THE POSTER, DISPLAYING THE OFFICIAL STAMP, DICTATING THE AUTHENTICITY OF THIS THREE-SHEET " 3 - SH.".
