1969140942685np: Stone Garden Press Inc 1969. First Edition. First edition. 2 21 pp. Publisher's stapled wraps. Near Fine lightly toned with age faint upper corner crease. Scarce. No copies located in OCLC.<p>An ephemeral document of the "Paul is dead" rumor that swept Beatles fan-culture in the fall of 1969. Paul McCartney was alleged to have died in 1967 under mysterious circumstances and been replaced by a body double. Supposedly this jarring fact could only be alluded to by the surviving Beatles not expressed openly via tiny hints and clues in the Beatles' album artwork lyrics and interviews shades of "Q"'s "breadcrumbs" in the recent Q-Anon phenomenon perhaps. This booklet runs through many of these clues such as the famous lack of shoes on Paul on the album cover for Abbey Road. By late October 1969 pop culture references to Paul's demise had become a running joke that few took seriously even though the memory of the rumor managed to live on in the popular consciousness.
