Have you guys looked at these? Is this the missing "Paul" wax head from Madame Tussauds'?  Throughout this set, everyone but Ringo's *EARS* are bizarrely out of focus while everything else is in focus:  wtf, man? What Is It All About?  |

When you get close up to some of the pictures, it looks like some areas are pixelated while the surrounding areas aren't.

Why is there what looks like a hand-drawn face where Paul's head should be? Why were the ears tampered with in the other set? What was there originally that needed to be changed? Why didn't they just paste in an actual photo of PM instead of whatever that is in the doorway shot? It's so weird. |

Also I think this is Faul with "The Silver Beetles" in 61    |

I'm not sure if that's "original" Paul with tampered eyebrows or a ringer. Let me show you what I've found:  1958 - Unknown - chunky Paul with broad bulbous nose, chubby cheeks; triangular eye sockets, short, sharp, low brows; round chin; hair parts on left.  1958 - March 8th - 147 Dina's Lane, Huyton, Liverpool - @ Paul’s Auntie Jin’s home - The Quarry Men play a wedding reception: Average height Paul; thin, high, curved, wrap-around brows; low ears; long head; short, narrow beaked nose. *this is the first (chronological) appearance of curved eyebrows I have found so far; photo likely doctored*  1958 - Saturday, December 20th - 25 Upton Green, Speke, Liverpool - @ the Harrison home -The Quarry Men play a Wedding reception: tiny square chin; left eye jacked up; ears look iffy; medium width, short nose; puffy cheeks. Is this a 3rd "Paul" or photo trickery? Do the Johns and Georges look like the same fellows in all the images to you? Also, of interest: How does "Paul" go from this --  1954 - September 14th - Liverpool - left side hair part & tiny Widow's Peak , skinny, right ear bizarrely distorted, right side smirk, very narrow nose, round chin, "Bean Pole Paul" to this --  1954 - Hot Dog Corner! - right side smirk, narrow nose, left side part, triangular eye sockets, folded over ear tips, square chin, chunky monkey, no widow's peak, "Fat Paul" -- within a maximum of 3 months? I can only find the year for the Hot Dog Corner! photo, but it can't have been before the September '54 pic because he looked like this in '53 --  1953 - Classmate's Birthday Party - Close Up - Triangular Eye Sockets, very full lips, tiny curved Widow's Peak & left side part, both ear tips possibly folded over, broad nose & this in '55 --  1955 - 12 Ardwick Rd., Speke, Liverpool - chunky monkey, left side part, folded ear tips, triangular eye sockets, short sharp low brows, "Fat Paul" I can, also, with certainty, only confirm one other for sure sighting of "Bean Pole Paul", here, in '61:  1961 - July - outside The Cavern, 10 Matthew St, Liverpool - "Bean Pole Paul" Please, share any curious pre-63 pix you may find. I'm sorting through Pauls here. |

I was of the opinion that the take over of The Beatles began with Epstein. But now...I'm starting to wonder how far back does this charade really go? Looks like from the very beginning! Good stuff Quake...I'm curious as to what more you can find in relation to very old Beatle pics.  |

Amazing stuff ekauqodielak. There's a certain synchronicity in the last UK No.1 single of the 60's being Two Little Boys, because this is two different little boys   |

Thanks, timmyb52 & joseph . I started out just trying to figure out when the fake ears made their first appearance. I, mistakenly, assumed there'd simply be a moment in chronicled history before which there were obviously real ears and after which there were obviously fake ears. As with *everything* about this, it turned out to be way more complicated and confusing than that. So, then, it turned into trying to find the first appearance of a dupe...and...as you note, joseph , the first dupe at any rate seems to appear simultaneously with the first Paul. Which is which is up in the air...I enjoy this mystery.  Tiny Paul, Mom & Mikey: right side cowlick, folded over ear tips, rectangular head with square chin, broad nose  Tiny Paul, Mom & Mikey: note the eye shape, right side break in bangs & cowlick, ear tips normal, sparse straight eyebrows, narrow nose. This Paul looks like his mother. Does Mike have ears? In an effort to explain why (a or several) "Paul"/s looked nothing like his parents or brother, someone, either elsewhere or in a very old thread here, mentioned that Paul's mom being a midwife might be an avenue to consider. She, surely, would have encountered babies up for adoption. The person also noted that both of Paul's parents were older than average when he was supposedly born, might have thought themselves infertile, adopted "Paul" and then were surprised to conceive Mike. In that second picture of Mary and the boys, Paul shares the brow line that his mom and Mike have. You can also see this in the April '56 school picture.  1956 - April - Liverpool Institute High School - Close Up - left ear tip folded, triangular eye sockets, sparse eyebrows, left side hair part, hairline is curved, chunky, "Fat Paul". You'll, also, notice, of course, that George looks more like Mother Mary than either of the McCartney boys... Frankly, I'm not entirely convinced that we're looking at the same Mary in both of the pix of her with her sons. This chunky Paul, also, seems to be the only Paul with cheekbones. We continue to see him, amongst other Pauls, through the farm years with Linda and then he seems to vanish from public record or public appearances as Paul, at any rate. Ok, I'm just rambling now. Again, if you find any interesting pre-63 pix, please, let me know so I can add them to my timeline. And I am curious what you all think about the Johns and Georges matching or not in the '58 gig photos. |

Nice parallel.
I wonder who the camels spit on during the shoot.
