It’s all in the eyes. This rarely seen photograph of John Lennon on the precipice of superstardom was taken around the back of Paul McCartney’s childhood home in Liverpool 60 years ago to the day.
We’ve seen a few shots like this before but this photo is of notable interest for being taken 60 years ago today of John around the back of Paul’s home at 20 Forthlin Road, Allerton. Paul’s brother Mike McCartney was the photographer and George and Paul were there too, enjoying a nice cup of tea.

Thanks! I needed that today. They have no clue what is around the corner for them in that picture.
Hope you liked this little snippet Max. Thanks for checking in buddy. Hope you’re doing well.
Same with you!
Nice picture, back to the past. It’s really moving to have them taken in their simple life.
Thanks for checking it out prince. It’s a nice little pic isn’t it, so much ahead for that man.
Very nice. An excellent blog!
Thank you very much
My pleasure!
Looked up the place on google maps, and marked it for future reference. thanks
Maybe visit one day. I would love to. Missed out when visiting Liverpool in the 90s.
