Description

Yellow Submarine (United Artists, 1968). One Sheet (27" X 41"). After making two feature films and a disappointing TV special, the Beatles - John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr - were less than enthusiastic about participating in another movie, but saw this animated feature as a relatively painless way to fulfill their contractual obligations. When the Fab Four saw a rough cut of this charming animated fable, however, they were so impressed that they agreed to film a live action sequence for the film's end. Reminiscent of the psychedelic stylings of 1960s icon Peter Max, the movie tells the story of the Beatles' quest to free the peaceful Pepperland from the influence of the evil Blue Meanies. Of course, like the Lads previous films, this was primarily a showcase for their music, including such hit songs as "All You Need is Love," "Eleanor Rigby," "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds," "When I'm Sixty-Four," and the title track. Offered here is a beautiful one sheet from this popular film. In exquisite condition, only some very light discoloration on the fold lines keeps this beauty from an even higher grade. Near Mint.
