1966 The Beatles stadium concert ticket stub featuring monochrome portraits of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Obverse text includes "D. C. Stadium / Lower Deck / $5.00 / Sec. 311 / Row 4 / Seat 1 / Mon., Aug. 15, 1966—8 P.M." Reverse features a contemporary handwritten ink inscription reading, "So you can remember...... Carole." Approx. 1.75 x 3.75 in. Graded PSA Authentic (Cert #14148243).
An extraordinary pop culture artifact and a rare survivor from the twilight of live Beatlemania, this original concert ticket stub dates to the band's final, chaotic American tour, occurring a mere two weeks before they completely retired from touring live at Candlestick Park. The 1966 D.C. Stadium show remains a legendary stop, featuring opening acts like The Ronettes and The Cyrkle playing to a stadium of screaming fans. Finding an intact ticket stub featuring the iconic graphic layout from this specific tour is a Holy Grail milestone for rock & roll historians and advanced music memorabilia collectors.
The ticket stub is in very good, authentic vintage condition as verified by its PSA encapsulation. The cardboard stock has aged to a uniform, warm cream-and-tan patina. The printing on the face remains remarkably crisp and legible, with well-defined portrait imagery of the band members.
