He must have gotten a haircut prior to Mad Day Out, as his hair was much shorter then. And also how did his hair grow so much from June 23/24 when he was with Linda, to July 8th? The photo I asked about had to be later. There is another photoshoot with the cutouts where they are wearing different clothes and Paul's hair is shorter.
Here's around June 23/24, 1968, taken by Linda:

This is it. Paul is wearing a similar jacket to the one he wore in May 1968 in NYC. This photo looks like fall of 1967 or late 1967. The earliest it could be would be June 1967 as that's when John shaved his mustache.
Yellow Submarine (the movie) was released Nov. 13, 1968. Hmmm....puzzling.

Okay, this photo of the Beatles with their cutouts was taken at TVC Studios in London on 6th November 1967 so you were basically spot on with your dating. However, the other photo with Paul,George and Ringo with the John cutout was definitely taken on 8th July 1968, during the press preview of the film at the Bowater House cinema in Bayswater, London. The world premiere took place nine days later, on 17th July 1968, at the London Pavillion in Piccadilly Circus, London. Phew !!
Paul obviously liked messing about with his hair during this period.

I was just going to write you that I found out online that you were right about the July 8, 1968 date! Thanks Kestrel!
(When I said YS was released Nov. 13, 1968, that was the U.S. release)

Well, the Az shirt could be worn anywhere but that plant is very common in AZ.

I think it begins with "I try" but its very difficult to read.

The first word is "If" and I think I have a clearer photo. As I recall, it is a really funny statement!

Nah, both too blurry! I know that sometime I saw a photo where you could read it.

You're right, it does start with the word "If". The badge reads “If no one claims me in 30 days I'M YOURS"
