The Beatles: an original black and white signed postcard, early 1960s, with dedication verso in John Lennon's hand, 'Best Wishes to Buddy & Regents', with the signatures of Ringo Starr, George Harrison, Paul McCartney and John Lennon (each in different ink), 14 cm x 9 cm.

The card was given to Buddy Britten (born Geoffrey Glover Wright), singer with 'Buddy Britten & The Regents', by John Lennon who he got to know quite well. The Beatles covered two of their songs in their early sets at The Cavern. The lot is being sold by a relative of Glover Wright, having been left in a drawer and forgotten about for many years.

Condition Report

No tears or pin holes. Some minor scuffs to corners, with evidence of being handled over the years. Gloss finish, so reflects the light depending on the angle held. No overwriting of signatures. No folds or water damage. The side with the signatures has a mottled colour, but this is not water stains or damage. The card has been well looked after, in an envelope and away from natural light for many years.
