Publisher’s full black leather, chromium name plate to front cover, spine lettered in silver, all edges silver, decorative endpapers, forewords by Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, profusely illustrated throughout with photographic illustrations. Housed in publisher’s black cloth folding solander box designed to resemble a loudspeaker, with loudspeaker design and chromium name plate to front cover, spine lettered in silver, the inside designed to resemble part of a control desk and a turntable. Inside the box is the exclusive 6 CD set contained in its own black box which is numbered and signed by George Martin to the publisher’s bookplate, two sheets of music by George Martin entitled “The Spider’s Dance” and “Waltz in C Minor”, the publisher’s loose cardboard sheet, a letter from the publisher to the original purchaser, a Beatles postcard.

A fine example.
“In 1962, as head of Parlophone Records, George Martin signed a new band from Liverpool that had been turned down by nearly every other label in Britain. The rest is history.
He went on to record every track made by The Beatles and is considered to have been a vital influence on their sound, enabling them to realise their ideas as their music became increasingly ambitious. The world's most successful music producer has now written a charming memoir of his life and career.”
