Though it has taken forty-four years to find its way into the marketplace, a poster advertising The Beatles 1964 Forest Hills, New York, concert has finally been discovered. Until now, the only known poster dating from the '64 summer tour of North America is one announcing the group's September 2nd appearance at Philadelphia's Convention Hall; a poster void of ticket outlet and price information. While interest among both Beatles and serious concert poster collectors will, undoubtedly, be intense, this recently unearthed cardboard rarity will garner additional interest from Bob Dylan collectors as well, since he appeared with Joan Baez during her August 8th Forest Hills appearance. The Beatles' return to New York City, where they made their historic Ed Sullivan Show appearances the previous February, was a rousing triumph as they played a pair of sold-out concerts at the 16,000 seat Forest Hills Tennis Stadium on August 28th & 29th. The festival routinely presented a wide-ranging array of artists and '64 was no exception with the likes of Barbra Streisand, who was appearing on Broadway in "Funny Girl" at the time, Count Basie, Woody Allen, Johnny Mathis, Trini Lopez, Harry Belafonte, Miriam Makeba, and Peter Nero all taking bows at Forest Hills in ‘64. The 14" x 22" cardboard poster, printed by Murray Posters of NYC, exhibits some typical age toning, some light scuffs, corner wear and some water spotting to the upper left corner area. Estimate $10,000-$15,000.
