The Beatles Signed Individual Stock Certificate Contracts for 1969 Sale of NEMS Publishing.
The certificates issued in 1969 by Nemporer Holdings Limited grant the members of The Beatles 2,450 shares of stock.
Each stock is signed by the respective Beatles member (John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and George Harrison) in vintage ballpoint pen and felt tip pen. Queenie Epstein has also signed one of the documents, which is incredibly rare!
Dated July 30th, 1969.
NEMS Enterprises, formed by Brian Epstein to direct the Beatles' careers, was derived from the first letters of North End Music Stores, which was the name of Epstein's family's Liverpool record shops. It was Cavern disc jockey and local promoter Bob Wooler who christened Brian Epstein as "Nemporer;" the name eventually adopted by Epstein as the name of one of his numerous enterprises. Dimension: 8" x 13" in
The double-sided certificates exhibit normal handling wear, but overall good condition.
An incredible set of certificates that would be a “Holy Grail” item for any collection.
Authentication: Frank Caiazzo Letter of Authenticity and a Gotta Have Rock and Roll Certificate of Authenticity.
