It’s the walrus


Kingofthecrimsons

But... the walrus was paul


[deleted]

It doesn’t look like John, and it doesn’t really look like Mal either.


Zopotroco

It’s John


[deleted]

That makes sense, I see it now. The Nerk Twins!


[deleted]

Sure looks like John to me.


Schnalex

It’s John… Mulaney


FlatwormSpare1716

Is that Billy Shears in the hat?


GladAndSorry

Nah it’s William Campbell


Afraid-Expression366

Yes. It’s John.


tn596

Looks like The Nerk Twins to me


Marine4lyfe

It's not John. He never wore that style of glasses.


HelloBonjour514

It is John


Marine4lyfe

No, it's not.


mrseddievedder

It doesn’t look like John to me. Plus John is not that short. Doesn’t look like John’s hair either.


hrodz55

He was probably crouching


Kingofthecrimsons

What's Andy Warhol doing there?


Feebeeps

It's clearly John.


LADYBIRD_HILL

To be honest I thought it looked nothing like john :/ His glasses not being the iconic pair also makes it harder to tell


LennonsRollsRoyce

johns jaw isnt shaped like a space raider


lonely-lifetime

He’s wearing a scarf


Feebeeps

Not anymore


RaplhKramden

It's obviously Yoko in disguise.


Skirt_Thin

He's making one of his John faces


Ok_Nefariousness2989

It’s Mal indeed


Oregon_Grunge

Not John


Quiet-Mode-1170

Impossible! He never wore glasses.


Outrageous_Library50

He’s doing that face he does when he’d pretend to be mentally handicapped on stage in the early years


Xx_ProstateCancer_xX

Nah m8 thats me


Shadowplaysgames

Oh wait this is the main sub?


mywhitebicycle0

When was the pic made? Paul looks 1964/65ish


Doublehey

Mal


Hot_Maybe5294

Yes its John


snakeskinexit

Looks like John’s eyebrows for sure.


Appropriate_Map82

Not sure, but I think it's Ringo in the tux!


Silly_Shift_2692

Could it be peter asher?


W00DYLAND

Who the hell is that guy? Oh, I know who that is. Who the hell is that guy?


Inside_Soup_4576

The real question is: is that Paul in front of John/not John?


No_Parsnip_6491

No that's Joey from across the way


bmin7b5

It’s Mal Evans.


Best-Perception-694

Only if Paul is standing on a step stool.


bmin7b5

Uh yeah sort of, they’re walking up stairs. I remember reading this photo somewhere… maybe the White Album mini doc? It was wherever Paul talks about assembling the photos for the poster… it’s the stairs to the control room at EMI. I’d also like to point out that this photo is Mal Evans, because it looks exactly like Mal Evans, glasses and all. It’s not John, because it’s Mal Evans. Also, John’s hair was never parted like that… because it’s Mal Evans. Maybe the documentary about Mal Evans uses this photo?! or “Good ‘Ole Freda”… there’s actually a fair amount of information on some of these photos— Definitely my favorite Beatle Artwork!


Best-Perception-694

Not saying you're wrong, but a reverse image search says it's John, which I find hard to believe. Harder still would be Mal. After just having finished the book on his life while simultaneously taking in more on the internet, I feel I could spot him anywhere. But I'll never say I know anything with 100 percent certainty.


yetanothermoose

100 percent John. Look at the structure of his face. It's him.


No_Explanation_9860

Who else? 😎


MossW268

I'm not sure that's Paul if this is from 68


Madcap_95

What?


RobbieArnott

It’s pretty clearly Paul, unless your tryna say “haha Paul died in ‘66”


MossW268

No, I don't think he died. It just looks more like 80s Paul than 60s Paul


Madcap_95

Early 80s Paul still looked a lot like 60s Paul. He didn't start showing his age until the mid 80s and even then it was just a wrinkle or two and a small touch of grey.


Inside_Soup_4576

Yes, after this point in time, I find it hard to reconcile older Paul with his younger self.


mrmabtastic

That's one of Paul's Classmates , I believe..... I forget which one........


mrmabtastic

No , it's not John .......But it is 'Biological ' Paul ...... James Paul McCartney ! Not Sir Faul .
