An original monochrome photograph of the Beatles — Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr — during rehearsals for "The Beatles' Christmas Show" at the Astoria Cinema, Finsbury Park, London, in December 1963. The group are gathered on the snow-dressed set around a large snowman prop, with a member of the production team crouched alongside holding a script. Printed in the 1980s from the original negative.

The photograph measures 16 x 16 cm.

The condition of the photograph is very good+, with one side of the border trimmed.
