In the early summer of 1968, Paul McCartney telephoned esteemed war
photographer Don McCullin to ask him to spend a day photographing The
Beatles. The group was in need of new publicity images, and wanted to
get away from the recording studio temporarily.
The chosen day was 28 July 1968. The Beatles and McCullin were joined by five others with cameras - Ronald Fitzgibbon, Stephen Goldblatt, Tom Murray, Tony Bramwell and Mal Evans - plus Yoko Ono, McCartney's girlfriend Francie Schwartz, and Gary Evans, Mal's six-year-old son.
There were seven key locations around London in what became known as the Mad Day Out. (via The Beatles Bible)
