BEATLES NYLON STOCKINGS

Carefree and Ballito produced these tights for the U.S. and UK markets, while Vroom & Dreesmann catered to Beatles fans in the Netherlands.

The tights manufactured by Carefree in the United States in 1964 were available in brown or black and featured printed portraits of the Beatles along with facsimile reproductions of their signatures.

The packaging was printed in red and black on a yellow background. Although marketed in the United States, the stockings themselves were manufactured in England. The retail display box, designed to hold up to twelve pairs of tights, measured 24 x 13 x 2.5 cm and featured the same graphic design as the individual packages. The lid was decorated with a promotional photograph of the Beatles together with printed facsimile signatures of all four band members.
