This book I borrowed from a friend of mine so that I could take a few scans. It is a republication of the original "Beatles Illustrated Lyrics" from the late sixties. Although it contains a lot of the original pictures - especially the Alan Aldridge ones - the design of the book is absolutely terrible! I couldn't even bring myself to scan the cover! Among the many contributions by various artists I found these by film director Philippe Mora (born in Paris, 1949 but grew up in Australia) which I thought have interesting colours and quite odd compositions! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippe_Mora
