November 13th
A 97-year-0ld document that contains clues to the identity of Eleanor Rigby, the subject of one of the Beatles’ best-loved songs, is expected to fetch $775,000 this month.
The manuscript is a salary register from Liverpool City Hospital and features the name E. Rigby, a scullery maid.
According to its owner, Annie Mawson, the document was sent to her in 1990 by Beatle Paul McCartney when she wrote to him on behalf of her charity.
