“In 1963 I was in New York visiting. I discovered that the Beatles were in town when I saw a crowd of teenagers waiting to see the Beatles on Park Avenue. Everyone was having fun, but the cops had a hard time keeping people behind barriers. Life was very different then. It was easier to get close to the heroes of culture.” -Elaine Mayes
Beatlemania 1963. Teen girls waiting in line on Park Avenue. I’m pretty sure that I would have been one of them.
Thanks to my friend jdx, I’ve discovered this amazing blog called Old New York. If you’re a New Yorker, you should definitely check it out. And if you’re not a New Yorker, you should still check it out.
Thanks jdx!
