When my mother was young she had a pen pal from England and she sent this book to my mother. It has almost fallen to pieces because all the pictures were taped to the book and after almost 40 years the tape has lost its function.

I think it’s a nice thing to do for someone. I guess that it was easier to find pictures of the band in England than it was in Sweden that time. On one of the last pages a envelope is tape and in that, this card of the band is, and on it Paul McCartney‘s autograph. If it’s real I don’t know. She, the pen pal, writes that it is, but who could really tell, not me anyway.

Even if my mother wasn’t any big Beatles fan she has saved the book year after year. Which I think is nice. Someone made this, and used her time, and my mother saves it. That I think is a grateful thing to do. Still after 40 years.
