I’m really interested in making Beatles art and learning about their history so I was wondering about some of the pictures in the Anthology album. First, I was wondering what the picture on Anthology 1 to the top left that says The Beatles above it. Second, I am looking for the picture in the middle of Anthology 2 . I’ve spent hours upon hours looking for “Beatles All-Star Show Shea Stadium Poster.” I can never find it. If you could find anything on these please help me. Thank you.

Is this the picture you mean for ‘Anthology 1 ‘ @kpmlsp1?
Details of the picture can be found here.
The ‘Anthology 2 ‘ segment is promoting the 1966 Shea Stadium concert however i cannot find the artwork online. Someone else may be able to or it maybe from Apple’s archives and previously unseen.

Given that you can’t find any pictures of the Shea Stadium poster and I can’t either, I suspect that the image used on the cover was never a real poster and was something invented for the cover.
As I’m sure you probably already know, actual posters had very similar designs.
1965 poster:
1966 poster:
The image on the cover appears to be a fake poster, with a picture of the Beatles during the 1966 Shea Stadium performance (judging from the clothing and guitars used) added in specifically for the purpose of the cover. I can’t seem to find the exact image used, but I’ll keep looking.

Actually, no. The picture directly under that one. Thank you for helping, and if you could find the other one that would be great.

Ok I wanted to make sure I wasn’t looking for something that doesn’t exist. Thanks for the help, and I’ll use an alternative poster.

The picture is from the Beatles performing at the Cavern Club on either the 22nd August or 5th September 1962 (someone may be able to date it exactly).
