The second piece framed with the above photograph is a rare Apple Records Promotional Comb.  This comb came from the offices of Apple Records, owned by The Beatles, and was given out in 1970 as a promotional item.  When the offices were closed, the employees were given the entire contents to do with as they pleased.  This comb came from ex-Apple employee Chris O'Dell.  Gary Sohmers from Wex Rex Records signed the COA in 1995 certifying the Apple Comb as being authentic!   The comb measures 6" long and the vinyl comb case is approx 6.25" long.  The case for the comb has gold printing which states "APPLE RECORDS" with the Apple Logo printed in gold, then has the address of Apple Records "3 Savile Row, London, W1".

 Item A000:  An Ultra Rare SIGN Taken off the Apple Records Building in London England in late 1976 !!!   Offered is a one-of-a-kind ultra rarity... In late 1976, this sign was removed from the Beatles Apple Records headquarters building in London England.  It is extremely similar to the sign shown on the back cover of Ringo'sRotogravure LP.  On the Rotogravure back cover,  is pictured a doorway entrance to Apple Records Building in London, circa the summer of 1976.  The LP was released in September 1976.  The sign and entrance was totally covered with graffiti!!!  All we know is that this particular fan removed the sign from an entrance to the Apple Records building in late 1976 using a dime to unscrew it.  When compared to the sign from Rotogravure(see pic below), the wording and size are the same,  but the fonts are just slightly different, thus it is a different sign.  Whether or not this sign was used on another entranceway to the building, or used to replace the original sign(assuming it was stolen too) remains a mystery today.   The fan is no longer with us, so we only have the story to go by.  After the sign was taken in 1976, it was brought back to the US and put on display outside at the fan's art studio for over 20 years.   During that time, all the graffiti that was on the sign has nearly all faded white;  some graffiti is still readable(see pics below). This sign measures approx 16.5" by 26.5" an seems to be made of metal and masonite.  The trim on the edges of the sign has deteriorated over the years.   A true Apple Records Rarity!! Serious Offers Only Please!!!    From The Lisa Lebow Collection.    Offers Please.

Offered is a 100% authentic copy of John Lennon's Roots Album from 1975 mfg by Adam VIII, LTD, record ID # A8018.  This is John's rarest record ever made!   According to Rockaway Records in LA only 1,270 LPs were originally sold and only 175 8 Track Tapes sold while this album was advertised on TV during 1975 & 1976, there are likely very few copies left in any condition!!  Fakes are easily found.  Original copies are not.  

The vinyl record is in Excellent condition!   It was played but was well taken care of.  A few marks on both sides but it certainly is an easy VG++/Excellent conditioned vinyl record !    The most important thing to find on this vinyl record is the record id number etched directly into side 1's paper label.   This copy has it!  See pictures.  It shows A-8018-A r (the last symbol is either a lower case r or k or some sort of symbol that looks like a 'r' or a 'k'.   We have included 2 pictures to show this record label etching.  The tiny LPs on the back cover have artists names are just readable - the fakes are impossible to read the artists names.   The spine is square as it should be plus the printing is correct on the spine, as it says GREAT and not GREATEST.  There is a bit of wear on the spine right in the center, but the words are still quite readable.   There are no seam splits on either the top seam nor on the bottom seam, there is just a bit of normal wear along the bottom edge.   There is a 2.5" light crease on the front cover, top right corner near the "NO' in LENNON; there is also a 1.5" light crease on the front cover, near John's shoulder.  There is light ring wear near the top on both the front and back covers.  Over the jacket grades VG+.  The vinyl grades VG++.   The original blue innner sleeve grades VG+ with a corner crease and one seam split, bottom center.   A nice set for an original John Lennon Roots album!  Worthy of any serious collection!       SOLD

 Item D009:  A Rare 1964 BEATLES In-Store Promotional Display for BEATLES WING DINGS SNEAKERS / TENNIS SHOES !!!   

Offered is a very rare Beatles item:    In 1964 The Beatles licensing company in the USA, SELTAEB, licensed many cool Beatles items around the world.   Well in the USA not many things were as cool as Official Beatles Sneakers!!   They were manufactured in the USA in Saco Maine by Wing Dings in 1964 through 1967 and they came in 2 different styles in 2 different colors.  There were lace up tennis shoes and there were slip on high top sneakers.   They both came in either blue or white canvas.   If you lived in Canada, you could also order them in cool pink canvas!   Offered here is the ultra rare in-store display sign that advertises these Beatles sneakers / tennis shoes.    It's in Very Good condition but because it was originally used in a shoe store back in the day, it has bumped corners, creasing, light stains, edge wear, even staple holes along the edges!   The back side has a large foldout cardboard easel which has been used but is completely intact!   So it appears this display was actually used a lot back in 1964... it would have sat on a countertop with the easel back being used;  the original price of the sneakers is neatly written in marker on the front left side;  at some point they must have stapled the display to a wall because too many girls were probably trying to steal the display for themselves!!   It's such a great advertising piece and one that belongs in a great Beatles collection!!   It could be yours today!! 

Overall the cardboard store display is in Very Good to Very Good+ condition.   A super rarity hardly ever seen anymore!!!   Price $3,495.

Offered is another very rare Beatles item:   In 1964 The Beatles licensing company in the USA, SELTAEB, licensed a very interesting item:  they were called Beatles Pom Poms and they basically amounted to a small furry stuffed animal with 2 eyeballs attached.   If you're a Star Trek fan then these would be the Beatle equivalent of Tribbles!!   Tribbles in the Star Trek universe were small furry creatures that humans loved.   They purred like cats if they loved you and screeched like a siren if they didn't!   They also ate and reproduced like crazy!!   Well, the Beatles Pom Pom craze didn't last long as finding a Pom Pom today is as rare as hens teeth!   So this cardboard store display is a super nice display item which displays Excellently!    The thick cardboard store display measures approximately 14" wide by 21.5" tall.   It was manufactured in the USA  and licensed by SELTAEB even though it's not marked as such!!  The display has some very light overall wear, a few light creases and a small water stain along the right edge.   The backside has a very large fold out cardboard easel which has never been used.   The water stains show more on the backside of the display.  

Overall the cardboard store display is in Excellent condition.   A super rarity hardly ever seen anymore!!!   Price $1,895.

This unused, unassembled cardboard store display measures approximately 17" wide by 17" tall.   It was never used and employed an easel stand on the backside.   It was manufactured in the USA by ICE-O-DERM. and fully licensed by The Beatles.  ICE-O-DERM is still in business today!   The display has some light overall wear, and a small surface tear on the backside, but overall it's in Excellent condition!   It was folded horizontally by the manufacturer for shipping.   We would speculate that this item would have likely been accompanied by a book of coupons which might have been attached at the top, under the lid.    We are also including with the store display one of the actual canvas Beatles Portraits from 1964!  It's in Good condition with a lot of edge wear all around, several edge tears and a repaired edge tear with tape on the backside.  The canvas portrait measures 14" by 17".

All of the graphic images on the guitar were applied using the same permanent ink that Mastro did back in 1964!!!   The graphics are the same as used on the Yeah Yeah Guitar.  The guitar has all 6 of it's original colored plastic nylon strings too and all 6 of it's original plastic guitar string tuning pegs.     It also comes with a copy of the Mastro Beatles Yeah Yeah Guitar Instruction Booklet, taped to the backside of the guitar, just like the original one was!!!   About 20 years ago we found the ONLY real, original vintage Beatles Yeah Yeah Guitar on it's original Backing Card STILL SEALED!!!!   That has been the only backing card for this guitar EVER FOUND!!!  Before we sold the piece, we made scans of the backing card.   The guitar measures approx 21" by 6.5" by 2.5".  The backing  card is approx 23.75" by 8"" and is made of sturdy corrugated cardboard just like the original.    A Super Display Item!!!!  An original Beatles Yeah Yeah Guitar on it's original Backing Card would cost at least $10,000 USD today, THAT'S IF YOU COULD FIND ONE!!! This one could be yours for a fraction of the cost of an original one!!!  The overall condition of the guitar is Excellent with no cracks in the plastic.  Overall it's quite solid!!!  This guitar displays exactly the same as an original one would!!!  Please note: we have only 1 of these reproductions available!!!

Item K002:    The Beatles 1964 Kaboodle Kit by SPP (Standard Plastic Products) !!!  Offered is one of the cornerstone Beatles items in any serious Beatles memorabilia collection from the 1960s!   These BEATLES KABOODLE KITS were made in 10 different colors during 1964-1966 and were available only in the USA during that time.  These were officially licensed by The Beatles and NEMS Enterprises, Limited, London, England and are marked as such along the bottom front edge!   Not many vintage Beatles items were marked (C) NEMS Enterprises Ltd., but these Beatles Kaboodle Kits were.   They are very difficult to find in perfect condition as most of them were used by girls and boys alike during the 1960's.   They were mostly bought as lunchboxes even though no thermos was included;  plus many girls used them simply as a knick-knack carryall or as a sewing kit.  

We are offering a RED VINYL BEATLES KABOODLE KIT in Good+ condition.  The item was manufactured in the USA by SPP (Standard Plastic Products) out of New Jersey from 1964 through 1966 and is marked as such on the bottom.   The piece was fully licensed by The Beatles and NEMS Enterprises Ltd. and is also marked as such on the bottom left side.  Seam splits on the lower left hinge and the lower right side hinges are quite common on these Kaboodle Kits and it seems to happen to every kit if you open and close the lid too many times and this Kaboodle Kit is no exception, there are seam splits on the bottom hinges, both left and right sides, plus there was several inches of splitting along the bottom main seam which has been repaired and is now solid.   But this kit was definitely used over the years!   The original owners name is still inside and you can see that Deborah was in the Third Grade when she owned this KK!!   So just image a third grader using this kit as a lunchbox for a couple of years!   That's
the wear and tear that you'll see on this kit.   But even though it had lots of use, the piece still displays nicely and the 2 areas that are the worst, the left and right hinges, you really don't see the damage while the kit's is displayed from the front!   The red vinyl really sets off the pink-ish silk screened image of The Beatles on the front!  The hardware is nice and works just fine.  A Rare Kit to find in any condition!!!  Overall in Good+ condition!
