Disk Display Cases
Suspended disks in a built-in case between the exhibit gallery and an exterior hallway offer illustrations on the outside to lure visitors in, and displays of memorabilia on the inside.
Entry Photomural
Life-sized photomural takes advantage of narrow hallway entry space to give visitors a sense of how The Beatles might have felt moving through crowds as police held back screaming fans.
Vox Amplifier Cases
Backgrounds in a number of exhibit cases are made from fabric like that found in Vox amplifiers used by The Beatles during the mid-sixties tours.
Tour Wall
One wall of the exhibit features a large fan photomural with text about The Beatles first U.S. tour followed by a 12’ wide by 8’ high map of the United States with tickets and other artifacts from various venues on the tour.
