Title: Early Beatles Promo Cards
Post by: on May 16, 2006, 03:20:57 PM

Hi

I have 6 black and white promo cards each with Parlophone logo approx 10 x 6 inches in size, dating from 1963 to 1968. All 6 are group photos. They are original and in mint condition. They are definitely not digital reproductions as they have been in my loft for over 20 years until I rediscovered them recently. Has anyone got any idea if they have any value?

Thanks

Steve D,
I don't think that 100 Pounds a piece is out of the question if they are truly Promo only originals. This of course is just an estimate but put them up on Ebay at a start of say...60 Pounds each with a reserve of 100 pounds each and take it from there. Ok? Hope this helps. ARC

Thanks for your replies pc31 and ARC65

ARC, looking at your reply are you saying to list them as seperate lots rather than together as one lot?

Cheers

Funny enough I was just looking at the website beatlesautographs.com  The second picture shown on the link is the same as one of those I have except mines a bigger format but unautographed. Anyway thanks for the links I'll check them out.
