Mean Mister Mustard colored shirt


the date stamp on this photo might actually be right. September 1968 doesn't seem like a date that would be too far off from when this photo was taken.

  2. Thanks to Bruno for letting me know that this photo was taken in NYC during Paul and Linda's honeymoon time.

  3. September 68 would make it a pre-marriage honeymoon but anyway, the Sept. 68 date does`t fit their visit to New York either way.
    According to Miles` Diary Paul and Linda travelled to New York on October 20 and returned to London on October 30 after a overnight-stop in Jamaica.
    So IF this was taken in New York I`d say it would either come from Paul`s visit to Los Angeles (June 20 - 24), when he headed home to London via New York on the 24th or more likely from John and Paul`s visit to New York May 11 - 15.

  4. Looks more like march 69 "paul hair" which if USA then it would be the post marriage visit!!

    But how did it get that date on it?Ive seen in a Beatles Unseen title(Hayward probably) where the date can be well after the event(later printing as the Apple Ss send them on)but before???so investigation needed!!

  6. Yeah I am sure that it does NOT say 1968 but says 1969. Bad eyesight on my part.

  7. I copied and enlarged the photo the other day too to check out the date but the resolution isn`t good enough on that version to tell for sure. It could be 1969 indeed (and would make more sense) but it is impossible to tell for sure for my eyes.
