Probably was October 18th 1967 as the Beatles (with wives and girlfriend) attended the London premier of 'How I Won The War' on that date. September 19th they were in Kent filming Magical Mystery Tour at West Malling Air Station. Paul and Jane could have gone out that evening as well but of the two dates, October 18th is the most likely.
Kestrel, you're a genius! Thanks!

At Mike & Angie's wedding June 7, 1968
Great photo! It's amazing to think that just a few weeks later he'd be with Linda in LA.... then Francie that summer..... If he wasn't a Beatle he'd have been good at flipping houses
But we 
him.He flips houses? I've never heard that before?
No, it was a joke! He "flipped" women so much he might have been good at flipping houses!
Sort of like pancakes?
You're funny...I read Peggy Lipton's book in which she describes her on/off rather sporadic affair with Paul, and according to her, he didn't treat her all that well. Ditto Francie Schwartz's book in which she describes him being rather cavilier and cold at times with her. He seems to have been the nicest with Maggie McGivern, but he didn't break up with Jane to openly date Maggie, during their three year affair behind Jane's back. As someone mentioned, he had gotten used to many girls throwing themselves at him...they all did. Or as used as you can get, to a constant barrage of fervent semi-hysterical attention like that. Asher was so self-confident, thought so well of herself (as she should have, actually) that she seemed oblivious to his "extra" romantic activities on the side. It came as a shock to her. I've sometime wondered why, though. The Beatles' women didn't get suspicious and wonder how they acted with their franticallly adoringfemale fans, on their tours? I would have wondered, and asked questions. I too might have got whiplash from looking the other way, LOL. Wanting to hold onto him so letting him have his fun. If that's what went down. What do y'all think.
I also read Pattie Boyd's book. She wrote that Eric often didn't treat her all that well (for one thing, he had affairs and fathered children behind her back !) as if once he finally won her, he started to take her for granted, a lot of the time. He treated their wedding as a drunken joke. She wrote that George wasn't all that kind and considerate to her towards the end. She was honest, wrote that she partied hard along with them. I always thought Pattie seemed like a sweet, pleasant person.
In that big color picture of Pattie, Cynthia, Maureen and Pattie's sister they're all wearing whimsical fashions designed and made by The Fool.
Is there a color picture of the Fool's whimsical fashions? So sad this is in Black and White because I know they must have been very colorful.
Scroll back to 9/3/20 - I posted color pic!

1967. Paul wearing the same tuxedo jacket he wore in 1964 to the premiere of AHDN and in 2016 to the premiere of Eight Days A Week!

So sad she shut down her decorated cake business. They were beautiful cakes. She's another one who doesn't seem to age.

Article in honor of Jane Asher's 75th birthday, which gives a history of her relationship with Paul:
Although Paul was having an affair with Schwartz, some accounts claim he was surprised [that Jane broke up with him] and that they hadn't formally discussed the split themselves.
However, he has always spoken extremely highly of Jane and accepted responsibility for what happened....
Paul also praised her continuing discretion: "I always feel very wary including Jane in The Beatles’ history. She’s never gone into print about our relationship, whilst everyone on earth has sold their story."
-
One from Mike's first wedding that I'd never seen.

Jane & Katie much later:
Jane & her younger sister Clare (first photo I've seen of her) who also has red hair!
-
Didn't know Jane had a sister! I guess she's decided to keep quiet too ... about her memories of Paul and the Beatles... Jane never speaks about that time, as we know... and Peter Asher is always very careful whenever he does share any memories at BeatleFests, etc.
-
^ Peter talked about Clare in 2019 at AROTR.
Here's a photo I'd never seen from India in 1968:

That photo was the first one I posted on this thread, and I found it on an auction site, where it was for sale. (See link below) They made no mention of when it was signed, etc.

I found it on FB and that was what the poster said. Makes sense she would have given it to him on the day they met.

I agree, just saying the Auction Site should have mentioned that... they would have gotten more bidders.
So somewhere along the line, after Paul and Jane broke up, he gave the photo away,or back to her when she left. And eventually it ended up being auctioned off.

Could be. He probably gave it to someone or one of the Apple Scruffs stole it.

Lyrics to "Apple Scruffs" by George Harrison
Now I've watched you sitting there
Seen the passers-by all stare
Like you have no place to go
But there's so much they don't know about Apple Scruffs
You've been stood around for years
Seen my smiles and touched my tears
How it's been a long, long time
And how you've been on my mind, my Apple Scruffs
Apple Scruffs, Apple Scruffs
How I love you, how I love you
In the fog and in the rain
Through the pleasures and the pain
On the step outside you stand
With your flowers in your hand, my Apple Scruffs
While the years they come and go
Now, your love must surely show me
That beyond all time and space
We're together face to face, my Apple Scruffs
Apple Scruffs, Apple Scruffs
How I love you, how I love you

^ George was singing about the girls who hung around outside Apple at 3 Savile Row. I shouldn't have called Paul's groupies at his London home by that name. They did get in (She Came In Through The Bathroom Window) and stole stuff like a pair of his trousers! He confronted them and they admitted to it, but he couldn't believe how they actually did it! So they showed him how they got his ladder and climbed up to the bathroom window!
