These are some of the last photographs of Brian Epstein that were ever taken. They were taken at the same house where Brian was found dead on the 26th of August. Brian mailed them to Nat Weiss, but I don't know who took the photos. These are very interesting photos, but they make me so sad. Brian had so much left to give to the world and looking at these photos, you can see that he wasn't happy. He was struggling with something. And the Beatles seemed to be so wrapped up in the things that were happening in their own lives that they missed that Brian needed them.
Yes, very sad. He looks like he's got a real mop top in these pics as well. RIP Brian.
ReplyDeletea loss indeed - very sad
ReplyDeleteVery sad indeed. Poor Eppie! Though he knew great success, didn't he.
ReplyDeletealso sad is that several life long problems that he dealt with are no longer in this day & age
ReplyDeleteHave a hard time believing this is Brian Epstein...
ReplyDeleteit is definitely Brian Epstein - he was no longer the suited well kept man he was in the early years as his unfortunate life took it's toll
Deletefelt incredibly sad when seeing these today- the man who made other people famous in career but seemed to be so lost himself - rip Mr. Epstein

ReplyDeleteI can't believe it's Brian ... he's so different, he's wearing a wig, right, that hair doesn't look like his.
it's him & no wig
Deletesaw his gravesite and felt so sad
ReplyDeleteyeah, it's really sad when you're there
Deletebasically losing The Beatles, being blackmailed, heavy gambling, drinking & drugs overtook the man - rip Mr, Epstein
ReplyDeleteabsolutely true and very sad indeed
DeleteBrian actually died on the 27th of August 1967, not the 26th. I can't believe that these are the last photos taken of him on a nice summer's day and there's nothing to suggest that he was going to die anytime soon.
ReplyDeleteIrrespective of his flaws and personal problems, he was a very lovely, kind and caring man - if not for him, The Beatles would never have been as big as they were. He also managed other bands and artists as well, including Gerry and The Pacemakers, Cilla Black, Billy J. Kramer and The Dakotas and Tommy Quickly.
Don't you think it's weird that you can see someone is holding Mr. Epstein's leg?
ReplyDeleteYes. Very strange photo.
Deletethe man sadly appears very out of it and perhaps the person holding his leg was trying to balance him in the chair
DeleteNat Weiss and BE were very good friends btw
