Lennon's Schoolbook Art up for Sale
A 10-page school exercise book, bound in red paper and filled with the scribbles of a 12-year-old Liverpool boy, is expected to fetch £100,000 at auction next month. The exercise book, somewhat grandly entitled My Anthology, is the work of John Lennon and includes doodles, drawings and poems said to have inspired some of the Beatles' greatest songs. One sketch is of the walrus from Lewis Carroll's The Walrus and the Carpenter, believed to have been the inspiration for the band's song I Am the Walrus. "He will always be remembered as one of the greatest singers and songwriters of all time," said Louise Cooper of auctioneers Cooper Owen. "But these sketches and poems paint a new picture of the creativity and passion that was rushing through his veins at such a young age."The book includes 10 famous poems, including The Walrus and the Carpenter. That obviously led in his mind to I Am the Walrus. It is a very early link to that song. It shows how artistic he was. It is so colourful. He'd sit there at his desk and he'd be off daydreaming and writing poems." The book is not the oldest example of Lennon's belongings in the sale of rock memorabilia on April 19. Also being auctioned is his engraved silver christening bracelet. A devastating letter from Lennon and fellow Beatles George Harrison and Ringo Starr to Paul McCartney, which some Beatles experts believe led to the irrevocable split in the band, is another item in the sale. John, George and Ringo wanted the group to be managed by former Rolling Stones manager Alan Klein, but Paul wanted Linda McCartney's father, Lee Eastman, to be manager. "The others thought that would give Paul too much power within the band," Ms Cooper said. 英国已故“披头士”乐队歌手列侬在12岁时的一本练习本4月19日将在英国公开拍卖，同时被拍卖的还有他写给保罗·麦卡特尼的信。据认为，这封信导致了披头士乐队成员分道扬镳。 据《卫报》3月27日报道，将要拍卖的练习本共10页，里面既有列侬自创和抄写其他作家的诗歌，也有他的随手涂鸦。在这本题为“我的选集”的练习本里有一幅海象的素描，是小列侬根据英国诗人L.卡罗尔的《海象与木匠》所画。人们认为，诗中的海象就是披头士乐队著名歌曲《我是海象》的灵感来源。 来自库珀·欧文拍卖公司的库珀女士表示，“练习本中的涂鸦和诗歌为我们重新描画出了奔腾在一个少年血液中的创造力与激情”。 据报道，这本练习本预料拍卖价将达10万英镑。 报道说，在4月19日的列侬生前纪念品拍卖会上，除了上述练习本之外，还将有他小时候接受洗礼时所带过的一只银手镯，以及列侬和乐队鼓手斯塔尔、歌手哈里森一同写给另一名歌手保罗·麦卡特尼的一封信进行拍卖。研究披头士乐队的专家认为，正是这一封信最终导致了乐队成员最后的分手。 在这封信中，约翰（列侬）、乔治（哈里森）以及林格（斯塔尔）希望由前滚石乐队经理阿兰·克莱恩主管披头士乐队事务，然而保罗却希望将乐队交给自己的岳父易斯特曼来打理。“他们认为这样会让保罗在乐队中享有太多的权力”，库珀女士解释说。
