Beatles signed "Help" photo

This beautiful example sold last weekend for $118, 950.00, as many here likely saw. It was accompanied by interesting contemporary provenance, as well as letters from Frank Caiazzo, Paul Wane, Perry Cox, and Roger Epperson.

Happy Holidays to all!

What was this "interesting provenance?" Happy Holiday!

Thanks, Eric!

According to the auction house, the lot was accompanied by an April 1965 letter from "United Artists Creative Director David Chasman to Ralph Kamon, who served on the United Artists Corporate Council." Please see attached.

Here's a large photo of the letter.

I've seen this photo before at auction...and the letter. It's fine.

These are very low resolution photos. If that's what they used to sell them, there's something smelly going on. Please post a link to the auction lot.

Sorry, that was a low-res screenshot.

The auction house has excellent images. Here's the link:

OK, I replaced both the photo in the OP and the letter photo below it.
