The Collector Copies Signed by: Klaus Voormann
In 1966, The Beatles departed from their earlier records and pushed the boundaries of rock and pop music by releasing their innovative and seminal album Revolver. Capturing The Beatles' new direction, and visually representing their sound, Klaus Voormann's Revolver cover artwork became instantly iconic. It went on to win the Grammy Award for Best Cover – Graphic Arts on 2nd March 1967 – the first time for a rock and pop album.
Now, Voormann has created with Genesis Publications a limited, Grammy Anniversary edition of a book he has created, entitled REVOLVER 50.
Including new artwork, photos, and introductions by Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, the book offers a fascinating insight into the making of the legendary cover artwork.
- Signed by Klaus Voormann
- Book & drawing boxed set
- Foiled buckram binding

The Grammy Anniversary edition of REVOLVER 50 features rare new photographs and tipped-in illustrations, with written contributions by Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr. The Collector copies include a signed and numbered book – hand-bound in buckram with gold foil blocking and gilt page edges – as well as a 12-page commemorative booklet, and a unique Klaus Voormann pencil drawing.
