I believe this photo was taken between shows when the Beatles played Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto on September 7, 1964.
The gold record would have been for either Capitol of Canada's "Beatlemania!" or "Twist and Shout" album, and Paul White was the man who signed the band to Canadian Capitol in 1963.
Unusual gold record. The label looks American but maybe it is Canadian? Anyone know what this record presentation is?(MarkZapp)
