A “remarkable piece of Beatles history” will go under the hammer next month at a Gloucestershire auction house.
Sir Paul McCartney lived with his family at 20 Forthlin Road, Allerton, Liverpool, for eight years until 1963, where he composed some of The Beatles’ earliest songs with bandmate John Lennon.
After McCartney and, later, his brother and father moved out, a front door key and a photograph of the house was enclosed in a letter to American fan Kathy Salt from then-occupant Ashley Jones, in 1965.
The three items will be auctioned together by South Cerney auctioneers Dominic Winter on 7 October, and are expected to fetch between £2,000-£3,000.
