EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the iconic Martin 2-0-2A aircraft, specifically the model with the registration number N93204 (MSN 14074), as it prepared for takeoff during the 1966 US tour by Herman's Hermits and The Animals. With a total of 36 venues on their itinerary, this Martin 2-0-2A was a crucial component of the bands' travel arrangements, enabling them to traverse the country and bring their unique brand of music to fans across the United States. The Martin 2-0-2A, a versatile and popular aircraft during the 1960s, was favored by many touring musicians for its reliability and efficiency. In this image, we can see the plane adorned with the logos of both Herman's Hermits and The Animals, a testament to the shared history and camaraderie between the two bands during their joint tour. Now, more than five decades later, this Martin 2-0-2A remains the sole surviving example of its kind. Preserved in the esteemed Peter Butt Aviation Collection, this photograph offers a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era of live music, adventure, and the thrill of travel by air. The Martin 2-0-2A and its association with Herman's Hermits and The Animals continue to be a cherished piece of rock and roll history.
