The Organisation

The
Dutch branch of The Official Beatles Fan Club was founded with Brian
Epstein’s/NEMS permission on the 10th of November 1963 and celebrates
its 40-year anniversary now. It is the oldest and longest existing
Beatles fan club in the world. Beatles Unlimited Magazine (in English)
was founded on the 10th of April 1975 to satisfy the demand of the
growing foreign interest in the Beatles after the UK fan club ceased to
exist early ‘71. Both are part of BEATLES UNLIMITED.
