Secret Beatles Ticket fetches $7,278 Selling on eBay

Nov 29,2011 - WhatSellsBest.com, a website tracking rare items sold on eBay, is reporting an early Beatles rehearsal ticket recently sold for $7,278. But a secret related to the tickets printing, could keep others (owning the same ticket) from ever discovering it's value.

The Ticket was distributed by CBS for a Beatles rehearsal prior to their second performance on their first trip to America, for The Ed Sullivan Show in Miami, Florida. (Deauville Hotel, February 16, 1964)

The seller's eBay listing states; "This ticket is for their afternoon rehearsal show at 2:30 pm. there were only a few hundred fans (and tickets) for this show and today, the ticket stubs are among the rarest of all beatles concert tickets in existence."

The secret related to the tickets printing is... 'The Beatles' name was never mentioned anywhere on the ticket itself. Only the location, date, and the ticket's specific use for, 'rehearsal only' are mentioned.

Meaning anyone who may have acquired a ticket second-hand, without knowledge of its historical significance, may never discover it was a Beatles ticket, or that it has a potentially high value.

Rediscovered Beatles Amp Expected to Fetch $100,000


An amplifier used by George Harrison during the recording of Revolver and Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band is expected to fetch between $80,000 and $110,000 when it goes on the auction block next month. As reported by Reuters, the rare Vox UL730 amp and cabinet was only recently discovered to have a Beatles connection, when an engineer repairing the amp noticed that Harrison’s name was etched on the chassis.
Subsequent research confirmed that Harrison indeed had owned the amp, and that he had used it on two of The Beatles’ most important albums. “Very few amps used by The Beatles have come to auction before, and to find one that was used on two such significant albums is truly rare and exciting,” said Stephen Maycock, a consultant to Bonhams, the company conducting the auction. The sale will take place in London December 15.
