Beatles Songbook?

Sign in to disble this ad
I got a Beatles songbook it has a copyright date of 1965. Does anyone know if this is worth some great amount of money? Ive included the cover scan and table of contents.

No idea really,but I am sure it is worth a lot to somebody.I would be hesitant to sell it until I knew for sure what it was worth.Personally,I would love to have it but i got no money!

My guess is that it depends a lot on the condition and how rare it is. On the other hand, I doubt it is worth a lot of money. You're speaking about one of the world's most famous bands, so I imagine there's plenty of their songbooks around, although one from -65 must be one of the earliest books with this many songs in it.

There's also the chance that it wasn't a fully legally produced songbook. There were plenty of things in the 60s trying to get rich off the Beatles quick.

Here's one from 1966 in excellent condition with a BIN of $15 (found with a google search in .08 seconds).

Your copy appears to be in much worse shape. I don't think you're going to be retiring off the proceeds.
