On the backporch

This is an interesting photo (can anyone guess where I found it?? Haha).   Paul is wearing what I always think of as the Lepercon suit but he is standing with a fan on the back porch of his house on Cavendish Avenue in what I would guess to be 1968.    It looks like they are walking out of the backdoor.   I'd love to know the story behind this story.


Thanks to Tracy, we now have the photo without "EBAY" scribbled on it and information about the photo  (and it is better than I originally thought!)

Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks and an amusing provenance letter from the original recipient, which reads, in part: "The photo was taken in 1966. A group of us used to go the recording studio at Abbey road, most evenings and weekends after work. This particular Saturday, we went to studios, but the Beatles were not there. So we walked round to Paul’s house at St. Johns Wood. We hung around hoping to catch him, or any of the others till later, and we were sure he was in, so we rang the bell on the big gates. Eventually, he came out, slightly cross, and told us to ‘go home girls.' Well, of course, we didn’t, and we missed our last train home!! So we rang again and he eventually came out again, and we explained our problem, and after a while, he said we could sleep in his garage. He had a kettle etc. in there so we could have a drink. The photo was taken early the next morning outside his back door. I think because he was so used to seeing us all, was maybe why he let us stay."
