Beatles Yellow Submarine photos up for auction at $80,000

An incredibly rare collection of photographs showing the Beatles and their Yellow Submarine counterparts is coming to auction with Omega Auctions on November 29-30 in the UK.

Beatles Yellow Submarine Photographs
The shots were taken by the relatively unknown photographer, Stephen Archetti

The collection of 161 transparencies was taken in 1967/1968 and shows the band with life-size cut-outs of their characters in the animated movie, as well as watching and laughing at the film. Sold with copyright, the entire collection will auction with a £40,000-50,000 ($80,850-64,680) estimate.

The photos form part of Omega Auctions' Music Memorabilia, Equipment and Northern Soul sale, which is also offering a first pressing of the Beatles' Please Please Me for £4,000-5,000 ($6,468-8,085).

Paul Fraser Collectibles specialises in sourcing the finest Beatles memorabilia for sale, including this stunning signed copy of A Hard Day's Night - an extremely rare find.
