Looking Through You: Rare & Unseen Photographs from The Beatles Book Archive

Description

A selection of more than 300 images from the photo archive of The Beatles Book Monthly , previously unpublished or unseen in their original form With each new issue, Beatles fans worldwide would voraciously devour the contents from cover-to-cover, discovering the Fab Four’s latest news and activities and most of all, savouring the exclusive B&W photographs, captured by in-house photographer, Leslie Bryce. During the magazine’s six-year run only a small fraction of these photographs were printed – and then often altered in some way. The Beatles Book captured the Beatles’ development from British provincial theatres – through foreign tours including their ground-breaking first American visit - and onwards to the band’s withdrawal into the recording studio. It was unique in its access – as well as concert tours and television shows, the band were photographed off duty, at their homes and in the studio – locales that were generally out-of-bounds to most Beatle observers. This unique and original photographic record preserves many important moments within the Beatles’ career, providing a historically important glimpse into the world's greatest ever entertainment phenomenon. 300 b&w photographs
