A full set of 60 of UK card company A&BC's 1st series of official Beatles gum cards. Excellent quality.

In October 1963, NEMS Enterprises granted A&BC the rights to produce a set of Beatles cards. The images were supplied by regular Beatles photographer Dezo Hoffmann. 

The set is listed as item no 1231 in the 3rd edition of The Beatles Memorabilia Price Guide by Jeff Augsburger et al. 

Starting price of £149.99 = £2.50 per card. Bargain for a complete set in this fantastic condition. (See below and pics.)

(See my other items for two slightly lower quality complete sets in albums, priced according to condition: [A] and [B].)

I believe all of these cards would meet the London Cigarette Card Company's grading of Excellent:

'Excellent: Clean back and front, including edges, sharp edges and sharp corners...'

But I know everyone has different standards, so I've tried to photograph every card clearly, front and back. I didn't want to handle them more than necessary, so left them in the plastic wallet sheets. 

No creases or rounded, soft corners. All unmarked fronts with clean, sharp images. All clean backs with no writing or glue or stamp hinge residue. I've upgraded several of the cards since last time I listed the set.

International postage quoted is for USA & Australia. For Europe it would be £15. Other territories also differ. Either ask for a revised invoice if you win or pay the full amount and I'll refund any significant overpayment when I mail the item. If I occasionally forget... remind me!

Please see my other items. I try to list items of Beatles memorabilia / merchandise every week or two, so if you're a collector, why not add me to your saved sellers list? 

I will combine postage where possible.
