A BEATLES Photographic Exhibition has launched the permanent new Getty Images photographic space at the Movieum of London in County Hall.
The exclusive Beatles exhibition, which runs until June 30, 2009, features rare and unseen images of the “Fab Four” from famous photographers, including Robert Whitaker who accompanied John, Paul, George and Ringo on their 1966 Far Eastern Tour.
The launch of the collection marked the 40th Anniversary of the Beatles’ last live performance on the rooftop of the Apple Building at 3 Savile Row. The images span from 1963 to 1970 and include shots from the filming of Help and A Hard Day’s Night, as well as candid behind the scenes pictures of the Beatles on tour.
As well as the photo exhibition, there is also a selection of Beatles memorabilia on show, including one of John Lennon’s very own Rickenbacker guitars donated by Pete Waterman OBE.
Admission to the exhibition is included in the entry fee to the Movieum – £12, £10 concessions, £8 child.
