Nothing much to say. great photo, classic view of the beatles crossing abbey road. the quality of the paper is pretty good, and it ships fairly quickly. (Considering it is from another company, bought through amazon). The poster size is approx. 35" x 23"

I bought this poster, SUPER CHEAP=]
and it was a gift for my Beatles obsessed boyfriend. He had wanted this for quite a while and just could not seem to find it in stores or online for a decent price. Well, when he got this in the mail, A DAY EARLIER THAN EXPECTED=]]], he was thrilled and immediately put it up on his wall.
I am overjoyed about this, just by seeing how much he loved the gift.
Thanks a bunch!

Any fan of classic rock will immediately recognize the cover picture to the final Beatles studio album, "Abbey Road." Photographer Iain MacMillan took the picture on 8 August 1969, at around 10 AM. He had about 10 minutes to take the picture.

Most of us are too young to remember the "Paul is dead" hoax or rumor of the era. Supposedly Paul had died and the Beatles were not telling the rest of the world. Paul is out of step with the other Beatles, he is barefoot, he has his eyes closed, and he is holding a cigarette in his right hand, though he is left handed. The license plate of the Volkswagen Beetle in the background, which was actually just an innocent car that belonged to people across the street from the studio, supposedly contained more clues about Paul's death. The license plate was stolen numerous times after the album came out. The Beetle was later sold at auction for many times its actual value and now resides at the VW museum.

Of course, we know that Paul lived well beyond this picture, and was alive and well at the time this review was written.

All the "Paul is dead" nonsense aside, Iain MacMillan managed to capture an image that will be one of the most memorable in music history. The photograph is simple and classic, and somehow manages to poignantly capture the end of an era, and, more importantly, the end of a group. This picture is an attractive addition to a bedroom, den, game room, or just about anywhere else you want to remember the final moments of the greatest rock group in history.

the poster came in about a week, but when i got it there was a crease going up and down the right side but other than that it was ok

Although I paid extra for expedited shipping, it still took EIGHT days to receive the item. Item was received in excellent condition, but overall, very, very unhappy with this transaction.

I was incredibly pleased with this poster. It shipped very quickly (for a company outside of Amazon) and was packaged wonderfully! I plan to order from them in the future :D

This poster is really great, if you are a Beatles lover, and want a nice poster for your room. It's a timeless picture and it never gets boring to look at. The poster came in excellent condition, and I would recommend it.

I ordered a 2 of these posters, one for my room at home and for my college dorm room. Both arrived in good condition a week after placing the order. This is probably one of the most iconic album covers in music history and you can be sure any Beatles fan will love it. Interesting history behind it: the disc was originally planned to be called Everest, borrowed from engineer Geoff Emerick's brand of cigarettes, and the cover would show The Beatles at Mount Everest. Staging the cover would be too difficult, so during and early lunch the four left the studio with photographer Iain Macmillan, and crossed the street. They ended up with this perfectly simple photo.

I bought the Abbey Road poster for real cheap. It came in the mail within a few days, and it's on my wall right now. Great service and great product!!

You get what you see.
If you like this poster, you will undoubtedly enjoy it on your wall and fondly gaze at it's simple elegance and irrefutable quality and awesomeness.

If not, why would you even look at it in the first place?

Buy it!
