Re: The Apple van - what do we know?
I'm warming to the idea that the apples were just stuck on for the cameras, and the van will have been otherwise unremarkable and unnoticed. That would also account for there being no lettering on the van, just pictures.
Re: The Apple van - what do we know?
If 'PNJ 317F' is correct then the van was registered between 1 August 1967 – 31 July 1968, in East Sussex.BDJ wrote: ↑Sun Oct 01, 2023 2:01 pm It is a Commer Walk Thru Courier Express Security Van.
see e.g. https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/512073420123059576/

PNJ indicates it is a personalised number plate. The F stands for the year, 1967- 1968. So the riddle is: why did someone choose '317' for the license plate?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_r ... ed_Kingdom
It doesn't exist on the current DVLC records - older vehicles usually don't, unless they are still in use.
You searched for PNJ 317F - Vehicle details could not be found
The number part is not random, it is assigned on registration of the vehicle. It's normal for a garage to have a batch of number plates to assign to the vehicles they sell. So for instance, if three vehicles were bought and registered from the same garage they could well be
PNJ 316F
PNJ 317F
PNJ 318F
Just out of interest, PNJ 318F is still on the DVLC books. It's on a Bentley T2 registered on 9th Jan 1968. It's MOT ran out in 2018, at 89,000 miles. It's probably still out there somewhere. I wonder if it's Beatle related ? Apple may have bought a batch of vehicles and registered them together. Who knows !

Re: The Apple van - what do we know?
Is there anything that says NOT spontaneous louder than multiple takes!
If the drum face was filmed more than once, THAT's disheartening enough.
Where's that nose-candy?
This is already not getting back and George is the only one who paid attention and he will still be rendered anesthetized when Paul gets here! Yoko will Get Lost just by being here. Is that picture really shot at Twickenham? We know that recording machines were brought in but shouldn't that truck be from EMI??? So you know it's a decorated prop///but why would George Martin send the equipment from Savile Tow? Was that a functioning modernity already? Someone would have spotted such a van on a daily basis. It's never been seen and it wasn't registered to a company anyway! Maybe Dennis O'Dell procured it free of charge. Paid for by Magic!
Get Back isn't even a song yet!
Which makes no sense and can only lead to a very formal 'script' that calls for indoor and outdoor cameras for the law enforcement. Dialogue need not imply or guarantee accuracy. Just find a white van, take these three apples and tape them on anything parked at the soundstage...even an Apple cart!
Poor MAL keeps getting the white cliffs of Dover routine...
Don't dig Neil Aspinally taking all the Evan's jobs!
Commonwealth...
You wonder where the money goes!?!
There's usually a nicely lettered placard that screams
"OPEN for business during filming!"
(NOT to play in shot!!!" )
And it all starts over again.

Maybe the van is taking the equipment to Savile Row?
Re: The Apple van - what do we know?
Well, van fans, I spotted it again on Jan 13, when it came to collect the gear.
I've examined closely and it's definitely the same van, same apples in the same places, and this is definitely on 13th (that's Linda bottom-right).

Re: The Apple van - what do we know?
Awesome work! Thank you Mr. Bump!
A very high score on continuity! The correct 'gear' is already hitting the mark in their travel-containers(black and wooden)! And now, the correct van is back! This can only mean...It means there is more continuity regarding that van + gear than in the whole LIB movie! That gear would have fit into a pick-up truck! It had to already be at Apple(on loan). And NOT a single EMI logo/Equipment No. on any of the cargo. WHERE on Savile Row would you park the 'Apple' Van? Savile Row was a movie set first and foremost! The van has been seen at TWICKENHAM twice but never been seen at Apple Studios! When did the scaffolding contractor stage the roof? Hogg must have gotten some of that confusion on film! However it could have all come from the prop department...including the green carpet. Is Denis O'Dell also a real estate agent?
I bet George Martin was panicked FULL STOP!
Where was this madness actually filmed?
It doesn't matter at all.
It was filmed!

Re: The Apple van - what do we know?
A few seconds later, you can see the van again. They are loading it up with a tape machine. Note that this BEFORE they decided to go to Saville Row ![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)

Re: The Apple van - what do we know?
I'm beginning to think that Savile Row is a facade at Twickenham!
The interior panels are probably stacked outside and when they're wrapped at 'Apple'
The Magic Christian can set sail!(the green carpet will be changed to ocean blue!)
Perhaps I was a bit hasty in my judgement of Denis O'Dell!
Thank you, BDJ!
