A collection of 61 black and white negatives of photographs taken at the historic performance by The Beatles at Shea Stadium in August 1965. The incredibly photographs were taken at the height of Beatlemania during what is still regarded as one of the most famous concerts in popular music history, with a record attendance of over 55,000 Beatles fans.

The photographs were taken by Marc Weinstein who at the time was an amateur photographer using a phony press pass to blag his way backstage (see full story of how they were obtained at http://www.examiner.com/article/remembering-beatles-at-shea-stadium-65-part-2-photog-recalls-taking-pictures-at-legendary-show).

The collection contains shots taken from front and side stage and are understood to be the largest collection in existence from this performance with the only other photographer shooting having a small number (less than 10).

The negatives are to be sold with copyright however this is subject to some minor covenants in the original copyright transfer from Marc Weinstein. Details available upon request.
