Cranberry Sauce, thanks for the compliment on my "Imagine Tribute Picture."
I love this, it is so cool to read what everyone has, there is so much memorabilia of the beatles, it's not even funny. How about the books? I love buying Beatle Books. I have Blackbird Singing, Growing up with the Beatles (published in mid 70s), Anthology, Beatles Photographs, The beatles Illustrated Lyrics..(this one is very interesting because there is all beatles lyrics with pictures, for example a painting of George holding a guitar with woman features and crying on his shoulder, accompanied by the lyrics for While My Guitar Gently Weeps. I am soon getting "The Beatles Unseen Archives."

I love buying Beatle books as well.  I have the Illustrated Lyrics and the Unseen Archives. The Unseen Archives are awesome. I also have John Lennon: Unseen Archives, the Anthology, Lost Lennon Interviews, Forever Beatles, The Compleat Beatles Quiz Book (yes, that's how they spelled complete and it was published in 1975) and two other books simply titled "The Beatles" I also have a comic that came out in 1991 titled "The Beatles Experience" But the Unseen Archives is definitely worth getting. My Dad's girlfriend got it for me for Christmas and I absolutely love it. OH! And I completely forgot that I have a souvenir song album that was printed in 1964. I love talking about this stuff. ;D |

I just got it from my mom's friend. I love her for it. It's so incredibly awesome. Glad to know the Unseen Archives is a good choice, hopefully I'll run over to Barnes and Noble and get it And I have to agree with you, talking about this is so much fun! |

In the way of books, I've got Unseen Archives and the Anthology. They're both amazing sources of pictures, and the Anthology quotes are amazing. I can read that book for hours and hours. ;D

My song book though, looks like someone spilled coffee on a few of the pages...  But the rest of the book is in excellent condition. |

Some of the pages got wet years back, so some of the book is 'wrinkled' but yeah, it's still awesome.

I got another shirt tonight! ;D
It's yellow-y brown and says The Beatles in brown on the front and underneath that there's a picture of them (I'm guessing about 1963) all jumping and smiling. It's great. ;D I can't wait to wear it!

Beatles books are the greatest. Another one that I really like is The Complete Beatles Chronicle by Mark Lewisohn. He basically researched what they were doing nearly everyday, haha. It's pretty interesting... especially to see their crazy, crazy schedule in the early days. I found a paperback version on the bargain table at B. Dalton's about half a year ago, although I'm not sure it would still be there. Barnes and Noble also put the paperback of Paul's biography, "Many Years From Now," on their bargain table a few months ago too. I think I paid $5 for it. Gotta love those bargain books.

Let's see. I have a bunch of books - the Anthology book, The Beatles Unseen Archives, John Lennon Unseen Archives, Lennon Legend, The Lost Beatles Interviews and well, I ordered the Playboy Interviews with John and Yoko but it hasn't come yet. (Lennon Legend is like the best bloody book ever, and everyone should read it.)
I play piano so... I have a bunch of songbooks. I have this really thick one called 'Great songs of Lennon and McCartney' and then another littler one called 'Imagine' thats got John songs in it.
Other than the books... I've got a John poster from the Rock and Roll hall of fame (I missed his exhibit, but they had left over posters XD). I've got... an Abbey Road and a Revolver shirt, and then a John shirt with his little drawing on it.
And my prize of my Beatles collection - an original vinyl single from Capital records, 'I Want To Hold Your Hand/I Saw Her Standing There'. My mom bought it when it first came out, when she was a little kid, it was the first single she ever bought, and now I've got it.
You've all got cooler stuff than me, but I lurve all my crazy bits of paraphernilia.

- I'm so sad! I have nothing on vinyl  but i do have Please Please Me, Meet the Beatles, Beatles for Sale, Help!, A Hard Day's Night, Yellow Submarine, The White Album, & Srg. Peppers on CD. - I have a huge poster of Abbey Road - a book logging what happened during every working day of the Beatles - just one T-shirt (so far) and it's of John and on the back it says "Give peace a chance" - a button that I got from the local vintage shop for like 15 bucks that says The Beatles and has their pictures on it - multiple pictures of the guys from magazines I think that's all I have. |
