In Beatles history, few things are as important as when The Beatles picked up & left for India under the teachings of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. During that trip to India, the boys opened up spiritually & musically, flowing with ideas & songs that would mostly make their way onto the historic White Album. "Rocky Raccoon", a folky rock ballad, was one of the songs to come out of that retreat. Offered here is the original publishing agreement between Maclen Music & Northern Songs for the rights to publish “Rocky Raccoon” onto the historic White Album! 13” x 8” one page, front & back, signed boldly by John Lennon in black felt tip marker & Neil Aspinall in ball point. Beatles publishing agreements such as this typically don’t surface, especially for key songs such as any tune from The White Album, making this a true centerpiece worthy offering. Overall in fine condition. Full letter of authenticity from Beckett Authentication Services (BAS).
