60 years ago, George sent a postcard to his then girlfriend, Bernadette Farrell- he was on holiday in Tenerife with Paul and Ringo on what would be the last holiday where they could go unrecognised - the postcard is on display at The Beatles Story @beatlesstory
It's one year ago today since we launched 'The Birth of The Beatles Story' book. You can meet the authors today at the exhibition between 11 and 2 where they are signing copies! It's been quite a journey ๐คฉThank you for the support along the way ๐
IT WAS 60 YEARS AGO TODAY! Bernadette, girlfriend of George Harrison, experienced the beginnings of Beatlemania firsthand on this day in 1963.
Read more about this and other personal recollections in 'The Birth of the Beatles Story' book available on Amazon. #Beatlemania
FROM ME TO YOU....on what would have been George's 80th birthday, Bernadette recalls giving him a card when he turned 20. Simply writing 'To George, Happy Birthday, From Me to You x' ... as she didn't want to seem too keen! ๐
"You behave yourself with her...I know her mother!" Sound advice from Allan Williams to a young George Harrison who was on a date with Bernadette Farrell at his club, The Blue Angel, in 1963. The first Beatles manager would have been 93 today

@marklewisohn I can help narrow down the date of this. My mum is pictured here bottom right, arms folded. She started dating George at the end of 1962 and refused to be seen sitting at the front once they were dating! So it must be some time in 1962. ๐ถ
@marklewisohn My mum is in this picture. Bottom right, arms folded. @StealingCake and I have been trying to track down the others. We know numbers 5,6,7 and 8. Would love to find some more! Also featured in this book which talks all about this experience @BirthBeatles
