HiRes Hodgepodge











Over at the Steve Hoffman forum, there has been discussion concerning the top picture; apparently there are many who feel it is one of the best of the Beatles. All the scans posted in the thread were from book covers, so the typeface obscured the picture somewhat; I decided to create a high resolution scan of the picture I had in my collection. I hope you all enjoy it--be sure to click to enlarge the picture; it would make a very nice wallpaper.

The other scans in this post originate from photos that were sent to me by my wonderful friend Jeff, who has amassed such an amazing collection over the years that he kindly shares it with me. These photos are "actual" photos on Fuji photo paper, and they are gorgeous! A couple of them are a bit different from commonly circulating photos from their respective sessions. There's one from the "Strawberry Fields Forever" promo shoot, one from the Mad Day Out, two from the Voyage of the Fritz session, and four from the last photo session at Tittenhurst.
