Original 1995 Beatles Anthology 1 promotional cardboard counter standee issued by Apple/Capitol Records to advertise the landmark Anthology album release and the new Beatles single “Free as a Bird.” This attractive record-store display features a black-and-white die-cut photograph of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr posed with their instruments, including Ringo's Ludwig drum kit bearing the Beatles Anthology 1 logo. The dimensional cardboard design allows the band and instruments to stand upright above a printed platform, creating a charming miniature stage display. The front prominently advertises “Featuring ‘Free As A Bird’ The First New Beatles Song In 25 Years,” commemorating the much-anticipated 1995 release that introduced previously unfinished John Lennon material completed by the surviving Beatles. Produced for retail promotion rather than ordinary consumer sale, this original period display is a wonderful piece of 1990s Beatles memorabilia and a distinctive reminder of the excitement surrounding the Anthology project. Approximately 24 inches wide by 23 inches tall when flat. Very Good vintage condition overall, with light age-related handling, edge and surface wear. The die-cut figures and instruments appear intact, and the printed graphics retain their attractive presentation. Please examine all photographs for the exact condition and configuration. A delightful collectible for Beatles fans, record-store advertising collectors, and enthusiasts of vintage music promotional displays.
