Photo Gallery: The Lost Beatles Photographs

Share:

Larry Marion’s new book The Lost Beatles Photographs features a selection of the over 900 images of the band snapped by Bob Bonis, the Fab Four’s tour manager for all three of their US tours in the mid 1960s. What he lacks in professional skill, Bonis makes up for in unparalleled access; the photos capture everything from live performance shots to intimate backstage moments to the bandmates hanging out in their downtime. Click through for a slideshow preview of several of Bonis’ personal, never-before-seen images from the book.
