MACCA’S FABS PHOTO ARCHIVE – LOST FOR 60 YEARS – IS COMING
SEEN THROUGH the back window of a car motoring down West 58th Street in February 1964, Beatles fans chase down the middle of the road. The striking black and white image, taken by Paul McCartney on the Fabs’ first, seismic trip to New York – and believed by him to be lost – vividly captures one of the first scenes of Beatlemania in the US. The next month, the band and director Richard Lester would recreate similar scenarios at Marylebone Station for their first film.
