B50640 – The Beatles Northwich Carnival 1963 Appearance Poster (UK)

A poster from the Northwich Carnival 1963. The carnival saw a unique stage appearance by The Beatles to crown the Carnival Queen at Verdin Park, Northwich, Cheshire, England on 6th July 1963. The event saw the biggest crowd Northwich Carnival had ever attracted, as soon as The Beatles took to the small stage hundreds of screaming fans tried to storm it. They were held back by police and even the local councillor chipped in to help. This exceptionally rare poster comes with a page taken from the Northwich Chronicle newspaper describing the event together with seven modern photographs of The Beatles on stage at the carnival. This is the only example of this poster that we have ever seen. It is printed on thin card stock. Accompanied by 5 modern glossy prints of the Beatles at the carnival. Provenance: the poster was obtained directly from the person who attended the event. The poster measures 38cm x 51cm (15 inches x 20 inches). The condition is excellent.
