The energy and the imagery that The Beatles produced have inspired artists, fans and money-yearning stuff-producing giants to make, draw and paint, carve, or mould endless Beatles-related objects which fans enjoy having at home. Some collectibles are really unique and ingenious, others are just tacky merch. I hope this topic could become the place where Beatle-people might want to share the images and stories of their favourite Fab4 figurines, pictures, models, stamps, book covers, illustrations, tattoos - basically anything visual goes.
This little yellow thing sang "Don't Pass Me By" to me in a shop and I didn't. 3+ age category suits me fine

If I had the money, I would collect ALL the singles and lps ever issued up until 1987. I miss going into record stores and seeing the shelves brimming over with exotic vinyl.
Those were the days, sigh!

Beatles on crutches? Jesus and 1/3 of the apostles-?
I wonder if George ever wished he'd dressed up a bit more for the Abbey Road cover shoot...

I would LOVE to collect non-UK EPS. Endlessly fascinating.Lord Reith wrote: ↑Thu Sep 23, 2021 2:15 am If I had the money, I would collect ALL the singles and lps ever issued up until 1987. I miss going into record stores and seeing the shelves brimming over with exotic vinyl.

Re: The Beatles-related stuff people make or collect
Don't get me started on EPs! I LOVE them! Bought all the local ones I could find when I was still at school. Great little albums. I had never even heard of the format until I became a Beatles fan. It seemed very eccentric and to my knowledge at the time only something The Beatles did.MrMurphMcgee wrote: ↑Thu Sep 23, 2021 7:51 pm I would LOVE to collect non-UK EPS. Endlessly fascinating.

uncommon ORIGINAL 1966 United Artists DOUBLE BILL RE-RELEASE poster for AHDN and HELP (right from before NBC would have the first television screening of AHDN in 1967)
