Aha! Found it
So, you know the famous photos of the Beatles in Harold’s Cafe in Hamburg (62 years ago today, 28th September 1960)…
I’d seen a few people say that they wished John and Paul were sitting next to each other, and it always bugged me because I was sure I’d seen a version that showed they couldn’t even keep their eyes off each other for one photo.
Well, I’ve finally found it!
Apparently this was Paul’s copy that he sent to Dot, so presumably the “Hello Madame” is a message to her (link)
But how very Paul to send his girlfriend a photo of him gazing at his boyfriend.

Exhibition PERISCOPIC – Pop and Agitation in Werner Nöfer’s Graphic Art. Hamburger Kunsthalle, 26 May 2023 to 24 Sep 2023
1/ Monitor I, 1967 2/ Blindflug, 1970 3/ Shape, 1971 4/ Off, 1967 5/ Messko, 1970 6/Periskopisch, 1967
Unmistakably a product of the late 1960s with their mix of Pop Art, landscape motifs and graphic precision, Nöfer’s works captivate with their carefully calibrated chromatics and formal language. While Nöfer was influenced by artists such as Eduardo Paolozzi, considered the »father« of Pop Art, his art is at the same time often a humorous response to what he sees as the »violence of the technological and mechanical environment« of his day. Nöfer created in 1968 at the Grünspan / St. Pauli the first wallpainting in Europe.

"I had never seen anything like The Beatles on any stage. They smoked as they played and they ate and talked and pretended to hit each other. They turned their backs on the audience and shouted at them and laughed at private jokes. I loved their ad libs. And there was quite clearly an excitement in the otherwise unpleasant dungeon."
ㅡ Brian Epstein in "A Cellarful Of Noise", 1964. From the book "The Beatles In Hamburg" by Ian Inglis.

The worst (best?) part of being hyper fixated on a fandom is that phase when you can’t hear a song without somehow thinking of your otp.

ASTRID KIRCHHERR and JACKIE LOMAX, c. 1963/64
These contact sheets have shone a new light into Astrid’s life post-Stuart, as her and Jackie appear to be very comfortable being so intimate with each other. It also confirms Jackie as being another of Astrid’s exes that remained her friend after their time together was over, with Astrid travelling especially to photograph his debut album recording sessions in 1968.
(I also enjoy the ‘Alle Nein!!!’ written across the last sheet. I think it’s safe to say that Astrid didn’t like these photos much).
