    Description

    Original AP Photo from June 1964.
    Tear Sheets on rear. First reads "BEATLES MORE POPULAR THAN JESUS, MOP-TOP SAID. Britain's John Lennon philosophized on religion"
    Second Reads "Beatles Roll In With Wet Mops ARRIVAL IN SYDNEY In a driving, torrential rain left the Beatles, George (left), Paul and John, damp but still full of enthusiasm. Ringo, fourth member of the group, is on his way to Australia for the Beatles' tour." -- AP Photo).
    2 rubber stamp impressions, Aug 5 1966 for the more popular than Jesus and Jun 14 1964 for the second (wet mop tops). Don't know if the photo was re used in 1966 or it was just a filing error.
