Disappearing mole?

[incurablelefty]

Is it me or does John have a problem keeping his mole attached in the middle of his forehead between his eyes? I have seen it prominently in some photos and not at all in other photos. Has anyone else seen this happening?

I had wondered if that is where he tried to trepan himself. (If he did.)
May have been a temporary thing, in other words.
It has been noted that two of the figures of on the Sgt Pepper have bumps on their forehead.

I've noticed that too, Lefty. I'm trying to remember if there's any instances where you can see his forehead before 1967. If I remember right, it comes and goes throughout the '60s & '70's.

I'll get back to ya on it.

Thanks B! It's one of those hard to miss moles. I figured that's why he always combed his hair down after they became famous.

Thanks Linus. I'm so glad I became a member on this site today.
I don't mean it to sound odd but it has been bothering me for some time now... The mole, that is!

Don't worry, we don't think you're odd. You can talk about how your shifting scrotum relates to Paul's hair-part and we won't bat an eye.

Anyways,
I seem to be seeing the mole in just about every photo of him where his forehead is visible.


1964 through summer-66 his forehead is covered by bangs.

Afterwards, present and accounted for.



So far, I’ve only been able to find a few photos where it seems there is no mole, but it may only appear that way due to lighting.
As in this one for instance.

It’s hard to tell. I kind of see something there, but it doesn’t protrude. If anything it looks like a big, light-colored freckle.
If it was airbrushed out for vanity reasons, why bother? It was never airbrushed out before.

The mole seems to be fairly consistent from what I've come across so far, but look at the other features, notice any differences?

Thanks for the stellar work. Beautiful! I noticed "The Mole" was particularly nasty-looking in the white album photos. That was what tweaked my interest. But again how does one know whether some photos have been touched up or not? It looks as if his forehead creases have been touched up. And while he grew his beard he developed some nasty bags under his eyes.
Hopefully he got some sleep! He was sooo tired!

You're right about the scrotum part, but only when I look at it in a mirror... Yup, parts on the right!! ;D
