Beatles Letter.










A Christie's employee displays a letter inviting an unknown drummer to audition for The Beatles. The letter dated 12 August, 1960 handwritten by Paul McCartney offers an audition to someone who had advertised their availability in the Liverpool Echo newspaper four days earlier. The unsigned ad said simply: "Drummer-Young-Free". The letter was discovered inside a book bought at a car boot sale in Liverpool by a coin collector. The auction house said he is a devoted collector of antique coins who regularly checks car boot sales. The letter was sold at auction in London for £35,000.
