Right On indeed..
The red nosed magician.
Where are the flowers in the lapels?
The sun pin.
The parrot hanging over John, George and Nicola..
The mask, what kind of animal is that? Pig?
More to come, MMT spilled over into the next issue, and a previous one a bit.

The mask, what kind of animal is that? Pig? Some kind of fish, I believe. I think you're right. Btw, the contest they refer to is one where you had to guess who was behind the animal masks. The Walrus was John.. (in the next issue) |

Just an observation about the MMT stairs photo--John Lennon was standing on the balls of his feet, so he appeared a little taller than he otherwise was. Also, the one of Faul's profile where he's wearing a soldier's uniform, there's a good close-up of his false ear.

I have to admit... his ear doesn't look real there. It looks like a Halloween prosthetic ear that fits over the natural one.
Also, are none of the Beatles wearing their carnations in that photo of the stairway descent? Were they not wearing them in an earlier take or something?
The magazine tries calling him Major McCartney in a Colonel's uniform, but didn't we firmly establish that it was the OPD uniform of the time?

Interesting that you take the text at face value.

also, interesting that some of those pics look more like Paul. Are you by any chance thinking of these ones, vs. fair argyle sweater guy? (and the Major with the strange ear)   |

yes, those three, right. Now I even am more confused. He's there, he's gone, visits, leaves, swoops by, dashes off. My friend Rhonda calls that the "hummingbird syndrome." Hummingbirds don't sit still very long......the ADHD of the bird kingdom......not saying that anybody was ADHD.........those crazy magicians/musicians

I am losing my concept........ Heh sorry, that was a meant as a vague one liner, as in of course not, there's only one possibility, right? Isn't that what we agree on? But looks like someone was "Paulish" one day, and not so much the other.. How to explain that? Angles? hair stylist? Uh oh, multiple Fauls? Your guess is as good as mine.... |

Not a one-liner, I just meant "where is my discernment going? do I KNOW the difference?"
maybe to much evaulating, too many pictures. I am not sure how to compare now.
Maybe some fresher eyes can see better, some newer members.

 Now my take on this interesting thread. Thanks JoJo for sharing this gem. The Mr. Potato Head ear is quite obvious on the Major.....wasn't there mention of a Major in "Jet"....just a random thought in my mind... Admiral..Halsey....what's this faul-sination with military men? ;D Fauling back to this....that pic of the Paulish Faul with the sun shirt does look more like JPM than the others do. Could be the "mountain" man without his beard? Or have we become ofaulwhelmed with all these pics?   I find it interesting that "Paul" was doing most of the directing. Notice in the finished work that outside the magician scene and the dance scene in YMSK, John and George don't interact with Bill. I've pointed this out before, but it stands to reason why John and George are basically background people. I also observed that on Sept. 1 they were at Paul's house. And filming began Sept. 11th, the anniversary of JPM's actual death...pps 9 &10. Is there some sort of sick symbolism as to the beginning of filming or what? The mention of Mal's chest as part of "Blue Jay Way" was a bit strange to have placed into the segment....but if it fits JPM's decapitation theory, it would be a sick image to include just to confuse and confound the masses. Bill's directorial point of view. Now I've noticed on one of JoJo's other monthly posts, after 1966, that there were actual JPM pics included, I'm just wondering if those couple of pics that resemble JPM are him, or it's Bill retouched to resemble JPM more than the Mr. Potato Head Ear image that just creeps me out. Since when-- "The Fish Was Paul"? I guess "I am The Fish" doesn't sound as poetic. I the eggman, they are the eggmen, I am the fish....goo goo ga joob.....Nope... I'm surprised you didn't realize the Ticket man was John. I thought that the first time I saw it. Whatever happened to the "Marathon" segment? I don't recall Ringo running any race? Maybe the world wasn't ready for a running Ritchie... My obervations folks.....I can't attribute this to being late, or while drinking an alcoholic beverage. Perhaps my Jack La Lane juicer has a secret compartment, as I'm drinking fresh veggie juice....
