Poster: Paul McCartney Photographs 1963-64 Eyes of the Storm Brooklyn Museum Poster NEW

This rare poster is a must-have for any Paul McCartney and Beatles fan, a unique piece of 2024 exhibition memorabilia from the Brooklyn Museum. The frame-ready 24 x 36-inch poster is brand new, direct from the museum, and has never been displayed, making it a perfect addition to any collection. It’s no longer in production or for sale by the museum, but I managed to save this one for you.

The photos here show my framed poster to avoid handling your poster which is currently packed in a strong tube (see photo) as originally received from the museum. Considerable glare and reflections from my staircase bannister and other posters obscure the McCartney poster’s appearance, which is clean, similar to the other photos here.

Paul McCartney Photographs 1963–64: Eyes of the Storm

Brooklyn Museum, May 3–August 18, 2024

#EyesOfTheStorm

As The Beatles captured the hearts of millions, founding member Paul McCartney captured it all on his Pentax camera. Traveling from the UK to New York—just as “the boys” did six decades ago—Eyes of the Storm takes us inside the frenzy of Beatlemania in 1963–64, when the band’s first U.S. tour skyrocketed them to superstardom. More than 250 of McCartney’s photos, recently rediscovered in his archives, reveal his singular vantage point at the center of this whirlwind of attention and adoration. Many of the prints buzz with the electricity of 1960s New York City, which has had a love affair with The Beatles ever since.

Displayed alongside video clips and archival material, the photographs not only showcase McCartney’s artistic versatility but also serve as a personal and historical record. They convey the intensity of The Beatles’ touring schedule, as the Fab Four were swept from concerts to hotels to the road with rabid fans and paparazzi at their heels. The images also evoke an affectionate family album, picturing McCartney and bandmates John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr at a time when their lives were changing irrevocably. See through the “eyes of the storm,” as McCartney describes his unique perspective on this extraordinary period, and relive a musical legend’s meteoric rise.

The photo and memorabilia exhibition is currently touring the world after debuting at London’s National Portrait Gallery in 2023.
