This was one of the first Beatles concert with the new drummer Ringo Star. This piece of stage was removed from a section of the actual stage the Beatles played on.

JOHN LENNON & PAUL MCCARTNEY WORN CLOTHING DISPLAY-Unique 3 1/2"x5 3/4", 1/2" thick clear lucite holder with swivel base with colorful graphics and an actual swatch from a pair of black trousers/pants worn by John Lennon in 1967. Originally acquired in the early 80's directly from Gordon Millings whose father was the owner of Millings & Son tailor shop. This was the famous tailor shop used by the Beatles, many movie stars, and other important music figures. Acquired through the British auction house of Cooper & Owen. The trousers have the original Millings and Son bevo label and the additional label with hand written notes with a "John Lennon July 1967." After careful inspection and consideration it was determined that a small fragment of material (left by the tailor) could be removed without compromising the integrity of the trousers. The material was removed from the cuff area. The removal was done by a professional seamstress. The display also contains a swatch from a dark gray, black velvet collar, suit coat worn by Paul McCartney circa 1963-64. Acquired through the British auction house of Cooper & Owen. The suit coat/jacket has the tailor label removed and was probably donated to a charity, at some time, as the jacket is autographed twice (lapel area and interior liner).
