I’m excited to present a set I recently acquired from Frank Caiazzo. It’s from 1966, a rare year for Beatles signature sets.
The autographs were obtained on August 11, 1966, when the Beatles were in route to Chicago to kick off their 1966 North American (and final) concert tour. This flight went from London to Boston, and this ticket folder was signed for a 16-year-old girl who happened to be in the first class cabin with the Beatles. This was a historic day for the Beatles, because after this flight to Boston, they switched planes and flew from Boston to Chicago, where shortly after they arrived, they held a press conference, and John Lennon had to apologize for some statements he had made in an interview earlier in the year, when he had said that the Beatles “are bigger than Jesus“ and “Christianity will shrink”. The provenance for this item includes additional ticket paperwork, an audio CD containing a radio report from that day, in which the girl was interviewed about her encounter, and also includes an original draft of a paper she wrote about her experience for her high school class. The signed folder measure 4 1/4 x 8 1/4.
As of this acquisition, I’m blessed to have complete sets from the years 63, 64, 65, 66, and 67.

Very tasteful double mounting and a lovely item of course. You could try a slightly narrower or lighter color frame for other items of this size, unless you want all your frames to match.
Nice job...great set...love the framing...congrats!
