Rare Photographs: The Beatles by Peter Laurie

You can't imagine how happy I was when I stumbled upon this stunning photo of the Beatles in a Vogue book at an antique store. Now, I was aware that the Beatles have been featured in Vogue before, but I have never even heard of the photographer Peter Laurie, let alone seen this beautiful picture taken in January 1, 1964. And so, I scanned it and posted it on LiveJournal and Tumblr and other people take it and claim credit. I know they posted an edited version of my scan over at the Beatles Photo Blog, but this is the unedited version, the way it appears in the book. On another note, I have also become aware that someone has discovered my blog and is posting the pictures that I have so carefully collected and organized over at tumblr. It would be so very nice of you if you at least linked back to my blog, becasuse I do spend endless hours on these posts, so it's the least you could do. Sorry this turned into a bit of a rant, on to the picture! And if I see it posted anywhere else without at least a link back to my blog....
