Airline food was better in 1964.
Via Just Collecting News:
A London to New York in-flight menu signed by The Beatles and their party has sold for $100,000 at auction in the United States.
It’s 1964. February 7th. And The Beatles are in the air on a flight from British pop royalty to world-conquering entertainment phenomenon.
Their arrival in the US is greeted with mass hysteria and the most famous television appearance in American music history, their performance on the Ed Sullivan Show.
This is the 60th anniversary of that performance, which makes it a great time to sell linked memorabilia.
This item was a Pan American Flight 101 Menu sold with 10 photos from the flight. It was signed by all four Beatles, plus manager Brian Epstein, Cynthia Lennon, newspaper journalist George Harrison Sr (who worked for the Liverpool Echo), and the flight’s captain.
