Mania Days is an essential complete photo-documentary record of life on the road with The Beatles - a unique opportunity to board their chartered Lockheed Electra jet and join them on their historic travels across America.

Strictly limited to 2,500 numbered copies, individually signed by Stephen Gunther, custodian of The Gunther Archive, this large format volume of over 350 images also includes several stunning double-page spreads of colour montages and additional wrap-around sections on a variety of specialist Italian art papers.

Master-printed on acid-free 200gsm matt art paper, and quarter-bound in black leather, Mania Days is housed in an exquisite silk-screened slipcase - the historic record of the ear-splitting, mind-blowing experience known the world over as Beatlemania.

'I think there was real, genuine affection between the Beatles and my dad. He was there on every plane ride and in every hotel room.' - Steven Gunther

Mania Days in presented a special solander box bound in white buckram with silkscreen printing and gold foiling, commemorating 50 years of The Beatles in the USA.

On August 18th 1964, one week after A Hard Day's Night hit theatres, The Beatles left London for their first full tour of the USA and Canada. Beatlemania had touched down in America, and the Fab Four were in for a frantic ride.

Although Brian Epstein wanted no photographers to accompany The Beatles on the tour, Derek Taylor - Press Officer and friend to The Beatles - persuaded Epstein to allow Curt Gunther to join the touring party. Exquisitely produced as a limited edition book, Gunther's photographs and text from Derek Taylor come together, giving an intimate insiders view into the beginnings of Beatlemania.
