Here is the area above the bulletin board behind my desk. The headshots of the Beatles came in the White Album cover sleeve when I bought it in 1968. The picture of John Lennon in his army jacket was given to me by a student.

When I cleaned the classroom before my first year, one of the things I found was the album cover from the Sgt. Pepper album. No record, just the cover. It was also separated into two pieces of cardboard and had been scotch taped together. I separated them and stuck them

on the wall. I have read that this was the first album to print the lyrics on a rock LP. I clearly remember my father sitting at the dinner table, reading to us all "Lovely Rita, Meter maid, where would I be without you?" A bizarre scene in the Guido household in 1967.

Finally, a favorite of mine. A thank you note, dated April 9, 2014, from James, the son of a colleague. James came in and played the drums. Subsequently, he referred to me as Mr. Beedles, a sobriquet I wear proudly. Hence, James' note lives with the Beatles.
