A double-sided 5.75 x 8.25 page of notes and sketches by Stuart Sutcliffe, removed from a sketchbook used by Sutcliffe during the period in which he studied under the tutelage of Eduardo Paolozzi in Hamburg, Germany in October 1961. The front of the sheet features the name of a fellow musician, "Rudiger Neber," and has a fountain pen sketch below, apparently a map of a city intersection. The reverse features several more abstract pencil doodles of various geometric shapes. In fine condition. Accompanied by a photocopy of a certificate of authenticity from Tracks for the complete notebook. On the constant urging of roommate and Liverpool College of Art classmate John Lennon, Stuart Sutcliffe joined The Quarrymen in late January 1960, purchasing a bass guitar with money he earned from selling one of his paintings. Along with Lennon, Sutcliffe is credited with creating the band name 'Beetles,' an ode to Buddy Holly and the Crickets.
