The 1967 short film from which above fake ear clip is taken, a recording session for "A Day in the Life". A lot of Halloween-ish face/head disguise playacting was going on. The fake ear may simply be a part of one of the costume pieces they were donning that night? www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPSR9K7tzPcEdit: From Wikipedia--- It was arranged for the orchestral session [of the recording of ADITL] to be filmed by NEMS Enterprises for use in a planned television special.[23] The film was never released in its entirety, although portions of it can be seen in the "A Day in the Life" promotional film, which includes shots of studio guests Mick Jagger, Marianne Faithfull, Keith Richards, Brian Jones, Donovan, Pattie Boyd, and Michael Nesmith.[24] Reflecting the Beatles' taste for experimentation and the avant garde at this point in their careers, the orchestra players were asked to wear or were given a costume piece on top of their formal dress. This resulted in different players wearing anything from fake noses to fake stick-on nipples. Martin recalled that the lead violinist performed wearing a gorilla paw, while a bassoon player placed a balloon on the end of his instrument.[20] |

Colin Unwin, a remarkably active Beatles fan, is rumored to have been the pre-1966 John Lennon, that is, a moptop Fohn Fennon. His official age would make him too young for that position, although they may simply be lying about his real age.

John Lennon's first wife just passed at age 75. They divorced in 1968 after John Lennon started his relationship with Japanese artist Yoko Ono.
Or you could say, after Cynthia knew she couldn't stay married to Fohn! LOL

www.inquisitr.com/1976840/yoko-ono-paul-mccartney-pay-tribute-to-cynthia-lennon-johns-first-wife/Yoko Ono, Paul McCartney Pay Tribute To Cynthia Lennon, John’s First Wife 670 Yoko Ono, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr have been paying tribute to Cynthia Lennon, the first wife of John Lennon, who died on Wednesday. Cynthia died at the age of 75 at her home in Mallorca, Spain. Her passing was confirmed by Julian Lennon, the son of John, who announced that she had died as a result of a short battle with cancer. Julian, 51, also confirmed that he was at her bedside when she passed, while a representative told ABC News, “The family are thankful for your prayers.” Yoko Ono took to both Twitter and her blog to comment on the news of Cynthia’s death. She also uploaded an image of herself with Cynthia, Julian, and her own son, Sean Lennon, to commemorate her passing. The 82-year-old also wrote, “I’m very saddened by Cynthia’s death. She was a great person and a wonderful mother to Julian. She had such a strong zest for life and I felt proud how we two women stood firm in the Beatles family. Please join me in sending love and support Julian at this very sad time.” Yoko Ono was joined in her comments by Paul McCartney. The rocker, who played bass and sang in The Beatles alongside Cynthia’s former husband, John Lennon, also wrote a tribute on his own website. McCartney’s brief but poignant note remarked, “The news of Cynthia’s passing is very sad. She was a lovely lady who I’ve known since our early days together in Liverpool. She was a good mother to Julian and will be missed by us all, but I will always have great memories of our times together.” Ringo Starr, the drummer in The Beatles, also took to Twitter to send out a message to Julian and commemorating Cynthia that was from him and his wife, Barbara. Cynthia married John Lennon in August 1962. She then gave birth to Julian in April 1963. However, they divorced in November 1968 while John Lennon and Yoko Ono were then married the following year. Cynthia would remarry three more times, to Roberto Bassanini, John Twist, and Noel Charles, respectively. Cynthia Lennon was widowed in 2013 after her fourth husband, Noel Charles, died.

Inside the US government’s secret war against John Lennon On March 1, 1972, the FBI had John Lennon and Yoko Ono in its sights. A federal agent declared that the superstar couple would be arrested for “interstate travel in the furtherance of conspiracy to incite a riot” if they dared to attend the Republican National Convention in Miami that year. Writes lawyer Leon Wildes: “I had never seen the government so determined to remove anyone from the United States.” Wildes’ book tells the story of the Nixon administration’s battle to deport Lennon, ostensibly for a prior conviction in the UK for hashish possession. The real reason? The government feared that Lennon’s outspoken stance against the Vietnam War and other political beliefs threatened to influence the country’s 18-to-20-year-olds in the 1972 election, just as the national voting age had been lowered. Whether or not Lennon and Ono were planning to attend the RNC that year is unclear, but they were definitely politically active. nypost.com/2016/09/03/inside-the-us-governments-secret-war-against-john-lennon/ |

And what were the CIA and US military intelligence doing against John Lennon and Yoko Ono?
Apparently nothing. Because they
were operating Fohn and Yoko. Where are their CIA surveillance files? The FBI and Nixon administration's supposed hostility toward them was a charade. Both Fennon and Yoko Ono were heavily using narcotics in the 1971-73 years. They even brazenly released a song about it with the name of their heroin dealer on Bank Street, NYC, "Peter the Dealer" (and thereby also promoting drugs and "heroin chic", another top CIA social engineering objective). It would have been quite easy to bust them both for drugs, have them both nailed and arrested by the FBI and NYPD, and to quickly deport John Lennon, and have him banned from reentry. But that quick, easy and obvious step was never taken. That in itself tells you all you need to know.
