Auction Note: Whether this backstage footage was taken before or after their concert is unknown but as it appears first on the reel it
is assumed it was before their performance.Sadly the footage is rather dark as for some reason there was not much lighting in the dressing rooms.

Footage includes:
The Beatles backstage in a dressing room with Hank Marvin, Bruce Welch, Shirley Douglas and Chas McDevitt; John and George
reading letters out to each other and talking; Close-ups of John Lennon, wearing glasses and smiling into the camera, dancing
around and messing up his hair; John and Hank Marvin trying on each other`s glasses and chatting with Bruce Welch and others.
