Beatles fan's photo collection goes on display - BBC
Seventy images from Mark Stanton's private collection will be shown at The Forum in Norwich on Wednesday and Thursday to raise money for charity.
The Fab Four super fan started building his collection 17 years ago and the photos have never before been exhibited together publicly.
"So far we've raised over £3,000 for Prostate Cancer UK, so it's a double whammy for me because I've raised some money and I get to see my collection," Mr Stanton said.

"I have to get tickets — he can't be in town and I not be in the building," she recalled thinking.
Harger admits that McCartney is getting older and his voice isn't what it once was, but she loves that he continues to perform. And she'll continue to attend his shows as long as he plays them.
"He loves to do it, and he's not doing it for the money, because God knows he has more money than anyone," Harger said. "I think that's the one thing I enjoy about his concerts, you can see the joy he has and enjoys doing what he does. Even though his voice isn't the greatest, I would pay money to sit in a room and just look at him."

In 2013, Ronson was one of four producers to work with McCartney on his 16th solo album, New. During the project, he got to see one of McCartney's lesser-known sides.
“I went to his studio one time and I got there early,” he recalls. “He was literally step sequencing a Moog keyboard to make the weirdest fucking sounds I've ever heard. ‘Ooh, I like a bit of that.’”
