In 1996/97, Shepard released a set of four prints featuring the images of three of the four members of The Beatles. The fourth Beatle, George Harrison, was replaced by Andre. This set is considered by many collectors to be the "holy grail" of Obey prints (sometimes fetching over $2000 for the set, it is definitely the most expensive). In 2000, a print that simply says "The Giant" was released. Only 10-15 were made, and all were marked AP. The print was made to look like The Beatles logo, and for this reason is considered The Fifth Beatles Print.
The four prints in the Obey Beatles set are based upon photographs taken by Richard Avedon. Prints of these photographs were included as part of the inside packaging of The Beatles 10th album, self-titled The Beatles and commonly referred to as The White Album.

In 1996, a single print featuring all four images was produced. This print's quad design and image order is modelled after another Richard Avedon Beatles work seen below:
