Beatles John Lennon Poster from Hamburg
Interesting poster of John Lennon purchased from Gretal and Alfons bar/restaurant on Grosse Freiheit street in Hamburg. Gretal and Alfons' bar was near the famous clubs in Hamburg that the Beatles played in back in 1962. Between sets and on days off the Beatles would stop for a drink and meal. The bar still exists today in pretty much the same state. I purchased this poster from Gretal and Alfons' a few years ago. This is a poster that they had printed to cash in on their connection to the Beatles.
The poster is a picture of John with a printed signature. The signature is printed on the photo. It is not an original John Lennon signature anyway. My guess is that someone at Gretal and Alfons' tried to forge the Lennon signature and then decided to print a bunch of posters to sell. It's not a great looking poster but its connection to a business in the Hamburg district from the Beatles early days is what gives it it's appeal. 12" x 16" in NM condition.
