I found this at Beatlesbay and I found it to be really neat. Some die-hard Paul McCartney fan obviously saw Wings in concert in Boston in 1976 and tried to take photos. Then went home and put together this sweet scrapbook. I loved the use of the label maker because in the 1970's, my Grandpa labeled everything you can think of with one as well. Actually if my Grandpa was a Wings fan, he could have made this scrapbook. It looks a lot like his work.....cut out newspaper collages and all.
However....in 2010 we now know that magnetic photo albums are the WORST thing you can do to your treasured photographs. It pains me to see these Paul photos in this album because I know for a fact that the acid and glue from the magnetic pages are EATING right through the photographs and it will be almost impossible to pry the photos off the page without tearing them. In a few more years, the photos will have disintegrated. Please all fans out there. If you have any photographs that you treasure (Beatles photos or your own personal family photos) that are in these magnetic albums, PLEASE remove them from them TODAY! I love photos (obviously) and I hate for someone memories to be ruined by magnetic albums.
