A rare set of two items that were handed out by John Lennon and Yoko Ono on 10 September, 1969 at the London New Cinema Club of Contemporary Arts show. This was an event to show Lennon and Ono “Art Films.” The first item is a 8 ¼ inch pan that was often referred to as a baking pan, but was actually sold as a “sandwich tin John signed this with a black felt tip pen and added “1969” to it while Yoko signed in a blue felt tip pen with “69” added. The pan has considerable tarnishing. The second item is a 8 inch wooden spoon signed in blue felt tip pen by John with “1969” added and a Yoko signature in black felt pen with “69” added. The two items were given at an event so the audience could bang on them. Both items have a COA by the world’s leading Beatles signature authenticator, Frank Caiazzo. The films shown were Self-Portrait and Mr. & Mrs. Lennon’s Honeymoon. Three earlier films, Rape, Smile and Two Virgins, were also shown. |

A 39mm, .999 pure copper coin mounted in a 2 3/8 inch x 3 1/4 inch presentation case with colorful, psychedelic "You say you want a revolution?" banner. This comes with a small, clear plastic display stand. You will receive this special coin 39mm, 1 oz. .999 pure copper “DisOBEY” John Lennon coin that was released in 2017, from the Silver Shield, Golden State Mint. It was struck from 10/23/2017 to 10/30/2017, just one week, with mintage of only 2,892. This coin celebrates the life of John Lennon and his drive to awaken society to search for world peace and an end to war. John Lennon could have easily spent his life in silent luxury, given his legendary status as a solo artist and member of the Beatles, but he didn't. He spent much of his life promoting peace. The US Government saw this as a threat and applied legal and illegal pressure on Lennon to get him to stop, but that only energized the man from Liverpool and his wife, Yoko Ono. The use of slogans, billboards, print advertisements, and songs shouted out "Give Peace A Chance" and "War is Over, If You Want It" challenging the status quo and the consciousness of millions to see that all power started and stopped with them, another theme of John’s “Power To The People." |
