Description

Never-before-seen 1967 candid image taken outside Abbey Road Studios

Unique color vintage satin-finish 3 x 3 candid photo of Lennon standing outside the entrance to Abbey Road Studios in London in 1967, wearing a Sgt. Pepper-inspired psychedelic outfit, signed in black ballpoint the same year, “John Lennon, love x.” Photo is affixed to a 4.5 x 4.5 mount and double-matted to an overall size of 7.75 x 8. In fine condition, with slightly trimmed edges to photo. Given the date, at the time of this photo was taken, Lennon was most likely entering or exiting a Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club recording session—one of the greatest music albums of all time. Any signed photo of Lennon from this time period is quite uncommon, with this particular image offered for the first time. Pre-certified Roger Epperson/REAL and RR Auction COA.
