(Artdaily.org)

One of the rarest Beatles posters ever to come to auction and one of the finest Grateful Dead posters ever made will compete for the brightest spotlight at Heritage Auctions` Entertainment Auction Nov. 16 in Dallas, Texas. The Beatles 1966 Genuine, Original Shea Stadium NYC Concert Poster was pulled from a telephone pole 53 years ago by the consignor, who has kept it in exceptional condition ever since. The poster, which features a familiar image of the Fab Four, was to sell tickets to the group`s Aug. 23, 1966 performance in Shea Stadium. `This is an incredible poster, beyond rare,` Heritage Auctions Entertainment & Music Consignment Director Pete Howard said. `The concert itself was enormous for them – by playing at Shea Stadium, they played for a crowd that was about the same size as the crowds at all 279 shows they played at Liverpool`s
