Thanks, Nancy! I think Linda took these, not long after she moved in with him.
Aww, looks like he has soap in his eyes in the last one!
<---not sure if that's supposed to be shaving cream or soap, but will just say it's soap, lol (couldn't find a rubber duckie....)
Love the military uniform photo too. That was from Help, and he was also wearing that in the recently discovered home movie from the set of the film.

Who is Paul burning in effigy, Allen Klein?
You may or may not know that the effigy is actually supposed to be of Guy Fawkes, the burning of which we celebrate on bonfire night, each 5th November. Its basically about a failed terrorist plot to blow up the Houses of Parliament in London. At least the occasion dates this particular photograph.
What a coincidence - I just watched the mini-series Gunpowder, which was all about Guy Fawkes and the plot. Starred Kit Harrington as Robert Catesby (Who was his ancestor!) Kit is also Jon Snow on Game Of Thrones. Funny, I nicked that photo off David Bedford’s Facebook post. He is from Liverpool (Dingle) and has written a couple Beatles books and was our tour guide on the bus from London to Liverpool. Great guy! He was the one who actually wrote “Who is Paul burning at the stake, Allen Klein?” I just thought effigy sounded better! Lol!

P.S. I was familiar prior to this about Guy Fawkes and November 5th. Doesn’t John sing about it in his song Remember? Yes:
I love David Bedford's books on the Beatles, which along with Mark Lewisohn's books, I consider to be the best on the subject. Yes, John does mention the 5th of November (followed by an explosive sound) on Remember. And on a different subject, Paul mentions the Houses of Parliament on the Wings track, Juniors Farm.

Don't you think this was from that commercial he did? What was it for? I remember him leaving a card by a sleeping woman...maybe bose speakers?

Great hair. HM days? She had him wearing his hair different.

Paul on an appaloosa. I wonder if it's Linda"s.
-
Yes, that is Linda’s horse. Yes, those pics with the RCA Victor dog were circa 2002. I don’t remember that commercial though.
More forearms: (July 28, 1968)

The pictures with the dog ("Nipper", the HMV mascot) are from 1997; Paul did a record signing (Flaming Pie and Standing Stone) at the HMV store in Oxford Street on October 16th. It was two days after the Standing Stone premiere at the RAH.

oh, 1997. Thanks for that info.
Do you remember that commercial that he did? He bought some flowers (I think) & walked into a room where a woman was sleeping & he left a card on the nightstand. What was that for? OHOH! I just found it....JBL.

Thanks, Nancy! Another great "forearm pic"
Have always liked the "Paul in chains" photos, from the "Mad Day Out" sessions. Here's another one!

You need to just put your YouTube link in the link box, because the actual embedded video always disappears after 30 minutes.

Yeah, when he was with HM his hair was a lot shorter... not sure if that was his choice, or she suggested it to him, but my favorite hairstyle of his is from the "Flowers in the Dirt" AND "My Brave Face" era... somehow this style is flattering to him because it's relaxed and comfortable, just how he likes to be, and having a bit of length at the back does make him look younger I think. It's essentially the same hairstyle he has now, except his sideburns are a bit longer, which isn't a bad look either!

That’s right, I forgot he cut his hair - was much longer in March when he was knighted.

Yes, I know about the box. I just forgot because you didn't have to do that before. You can also copy & paste. Do you remember the commercial?

Yes, now I do! The girl in it looked a lot like Nancy.
