thank you sara, it feels really good to be liked by one's friends! that's me alright, with my trusting cheap copy of an instamatic (i bought it at boots pharmacy and still have it!), trying to get a good shot in one second flat! there were many hits, but also many misses. the worst part is even if it's just a blur, i haven't been able to throw away my bad pics or negatives... have to do so one of these days.
First I though "That's Yoko, not John." And then I saw a beard, and I was speechless. I can't believe John has EVER had a beard that long! I've certainly never seen his facial hair like that!
Samantha, A good look will reveal that it's BOTH John & Yoko. One can see where John's beard ends, and from there it's Yoko ( or somebody's ) hair. ( There's certainly a color and texture differance too ) If John had indeed grown it out that long, he'd have had to have gone into hiding for a year to never have had another pic taken of it !
This blog is to highlight photos and stories of people who have met the Beatles in person. And while fan taken photos are my favorite, I also like to include vintage fan photos and other photos that show the Beatles meeting fans.
The idea behind this blog is to follow in the footsteps of the great Beatle fanzines of the 1970's & 1980's such as The Write Thing, The Harrison Alliance, With a Little Help from my Friends, Paperback Writer, etc etc. Photos and article from those publications and others are reproduced here to preserve the history of the fans who met one or more Beatle in person.
If you have ever met one of the Beatles and have a story or pictures to share, please contact me, Sara, at Starshyne9@yahoo.com.
I have never met the Beatles (besides in my dreams) but love fan photos. These photos are from my collection, which spans 17 years of online photo collecting and scanning books. I do not claim any copyright of these photos or stories. Some of them are sent to me and published with permission. Others are scanned from magazines, books and found in various places online. I do not watermark photos that I place on this blog because I do not own any of the photos. These photos are on this blog in an attempt to preserve the history of the Beatles. If you own the rights to a photo and wish to have it removed from this blog, please contact me.
