Ok, I read all 7 pages of this thread and the one I liked the most was (behind a glass wall of course) would be the mixing board with George Martin wax figure looking out to the boys in studio 2.  The boys would be also be wax figures with they instruments, drums & vox amps!

That one would be pretty impressive, well worth the visit!

The wax figures from the Pepper cover? That would make this amazing thing even better. This should happen.

The glass that Paul broke right before “You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away “. Or maybe George M.’s tie which George H. didn’t like. a-hard-days-night-george-10

See post 8 on page one.

By the way, Katie, you may be only a Junior, but do you have a sleeping bag or blanket we could have? a-hard-days-night-george-10

Katie??? 

Aww, she was more fun as the anonymous AppleScruffJunior. Here we go about that deleting-posts-from-memory-that-we-wish-we’d-never-seen thing talked about in another thread.

I wanna see that clone of John Lennon that that dentist is making.  Perhaps he can be behind glass like a zoo animal.

I wonder if there’s enough out there to create a food tribute wing?

Maybe we could start a Fab Forum virtual museum. My sister bought this for me from someone with a sales table set up around the corner from the Menlove Avenue house. I wonder if there is a mini double-deck bus representing every album cover. (Yes, please)

Theres a Pete Best signed drum head on Craigslist in Seattle for 200$, seller says he got it personally signed. Might be a cool thing to get, I’m probably not going to though.

John’s first Vox amp. Hope this is it.

https://www.guitarworld.com/ne…..r-60-years

From the article

vox.pngImage Enlarger

“The serial number was the same as John Lennon ’s amp. I couldn’t believe it”: John Lennon ’s first Vox amp – used on early Beatles recordings and Cavern gigs – was lost for 60 years. Now it may have been found, covered in black paint, on an auction site

By Matt Parker published 11 July 2024

Heard on Please Please Me and Love Me Do , this unassuming 1962 Vox AC15 Twin may have just become the most valuable amp on the planet – and we’ve had the exclusive first look

It is quite possibly the amp find of the century. An AC15 Twin believed to be John Lennon ’s first Vox amp has been located and recovered for the first time in over 60 years, after an eagle-eyed Beatles fan and guitarist discovered it – disguised under a coat of black paint – in an online auction.

Lennon’s 1962 AC15 Twin, carrying the serial number ‘4583’, was purchased by the songwriter from Liverpool store Hessy’s Music in July 1962 for £123 and saw use in the Beatles’ shows at the Cavern Club and on early EMI sessions, including the recordings of Please Please Me  and Love Me Do . It also features in some of the only footage of the Beatles performing at the Cavern Club.

The amp still requires expert verification but is off to a very promising start – with a matching serial number, correctly dated internal components, photographic evidence and the fact that only 30 or so AC15 Twins were produced in the era, all running in its favor.

Guitar World was invited for an exclusive look at the rediscovered amp, which was temporarily back in situ at the Cavern for a photoshoot – likely its first visit to Liverpool’s Matthew Street since Lennon parted ways with the combo in early 1963.

I just yesterday learned that Baskin-Robbins developed a special limited edition ice cream flavour called “Beatle Nut” to coincide with the boys’ 1964 North American tour: Walnuts and pistachios (though oddly, no actual betel nuts) ribboned with “Rock ‘n Roll Fudge” (the best kind of fudge!)
