Except this is March 1965 before The Byrds even had a reocrd out – nor McGuinn started wearing the Ben Frank specs. If anything it’s the other way around!
Penny Lane. Amazing. Thanks for such a fab page.
Penny Lane Shades
(from Japan?)
sorry…next time i’ll read the caption.
but I thought those shades were bought in the tokyo hotelroom in 66
I thought they were Japan too!, but yeh .. you’re right, it is the Penny Lane clip.
wow, what a find, my friend! simply fab.
That’s awesome. I love those glasses!
Wonderful picture and I love those shades too. : ) <3
That is John imitating Roger McGuinn of The Byrds. The Beatles thought The Byrds were one of America’s best bands in 1965.

A Car; Guess you might be right!
I own a pair! They were not cheap but I had to have them.
Sometimes I dim the lights, watch the Penny Lane video, and wear the shades.
Are we sure this is a “Help!” era photo?
Datey?, what’s your thoughts, looks Help-ish to me, the black outfit, that cap .. the snow?
Definitely Obertauern, Austria, March 1965
In fact I’m willing to bet that’s Ringo standing out of frame to John’s right
Awesome pic
