Beatles Choice set of signatures obtained on the way to Sweden

An Air France London Airport service card, 4 x 6, signed on the reverse in blue ballpoint, “Beatles, Paul McCartney,” “Ringo Starr,” “George Harrison,” and “John Lennon.” Front of the card is dated October 23, 1963, in another hand. In fine condition, with a few scattered light creases. All the signatures were obtained at London Airport on October 23, 1963, when the band was flying out to Stockholm, Sweden, for their first ever European tour. Earlier in the day the group was at EMI Studios, Abbey Road, London, and had made the final input into their second album With The Beatles, recording the 16th take of ‘I Wanna Be Your Man’ and then watching as George Martin and Norman Smith mixed ‘Little Child’ and ‘Hold Me Tight’ into mono. Pre-certified Roger Epperson/REAL and RR Auction COA.
