    THE BEATLES (BANNER) – RICHARD AVEDON – 1967 – Original 1967 Printing

    Original black-and-white Beatles banner poster created by Richard Avedon in 1967 during the height of the Sgt. Pepper era. Commissioned by The Beatles’ company NEMS, Avedon photographed John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr individually in London against a stark white backdrop, producing what would become one of the most iconic visual statements of the 1960s.

    The full Avedon series included four colorized psychedelic portraits and this striking black-and-white composite banner. The images were published internationally in early 1968 through The Daily Express (UK), LOOK Magazine (USA), and Stern (Germany). This example is from the original European Stern printing, produced by PPP Printers.

    Although thousands were printed at the peak of Beatlemania, relatively few survive in strong condition. Most were displayed with tape and later discarded. Authentic 1967 printings such as this are the only versions considered original first editions and have become important cultural artifacts, frequently featured in Pop Art, 1960s, and Rock & Roll exhibitions.

    Savoie France travel poster 1960 Jacques Auriac original printing Mont Blanc

    $ 850

    Title: Savoie France – Fêtes du centenaire
    Artist: Auriac
    Date: 1960
    Printer: Société d’Exploitation Etablissements de La Vasselais, Paris
    Size: 27 x 39 inches

    This poster image was used both for celebrating 100 years of Savoie Region and also exists with the title Megeve. You can see its summertime with flowers about but in the background is the famous Mont Blanc which stays white with snow through the whole summer.

    The “célèbre clocher à bulbes” (famous onion-shaped bell tower) in the Savoie region of France refers to the distinct bulbous bell towers found in many churches in the region. These towers, also known as “clochers à bulbes”, are a hallmark of Baroque architecture introduced in the 17th and 18th centuries, especially under the influence of the Counter-Reformation.

    These onion-shaped domes are particularly common in alpine regions, including Savoie, and are a reminder of the strong religious influence in the area. One of the most famous examples in Savoie is the bell tower of the Saint-Martin Church in Saint-Martin-de-Belleville, though many other towns and villages in Savoie feature similar structures.
