John & Cynthia Lennon Depart for Rishikesh, India February 1968. George too!

Hi All,

Something new. John and Cynthia Lennon leaving for India to arrive on the 15th. There, several songs that would be placed on The White Album were written. This vintage contact print shows John and Cynthia weaving through Heathrow. The other shows John and George boarding. John and George were first in and last out of Sadie's. I was going to keep one and and give another to my brother but I saw the one posted down below and that is for me! My brother will get the two below. :-)

Thank you. I don't know where they may have been published. I asked the other Mark and he had never seen them before either. It is possible not all were published. I assumed they would have family but as vintage contact prints I thought they were pretty special. I actually knew what they were showing :-) Seller never mentioned. My brother will flip! He loves The White Album.

Thank you Scott. They had not been listed before as far as I can tell and I don't see any of them online. I'm happy :-)

I found this which is the closest from Bridgeman, and there are some Mirrorpix via Getty and some Aalamy taken at the location of the print I am keeping, but not the same images. The image below is just seconds from the one on the contact print, this being before the OP (see the floor). I can not find the photographer.
