A rare photograph of The Beatles signed by John, Paul, George and Ringo 58 years ago for a teenage fan is being sold at auction in Lichfield.

Monica Hayes vividly remembers her mum surprising her with the precious autograph, signed during a break in filming at a Birmingham television studio.

The picture is expected to fetch between £2,000 and £3,000 when it goes up for sale at. Richard Winterton auctioneers on 12th April.

Monica’s mum Norah Sargent was working in the canteen at the studios when The Beatles went to grab a bite to eat in between filming for a show.

The Fab Four agreed to sign a photo for her which was then handed over to her daughter when she returned home.

Monica, now 74, said:

“I was in bed when she got home and she just came in, showed me the signed photo and said it was for me.

“She was thrilled she’d brought it home and I didn’t sleep over well that night because she’d shown it to me.”

The photograph shows the band wearing their trademark matching 1963 collarless suits.
