Suddenly Someone Is There at the Turnstile

"John Lennon made him design consultant to the Beatles, which led to a line of puckish Apple-shaped clocks and other tchotchkes and, more importantly, to the innovative book, The Beatles Illustrated Lyrics, which is how most of us in Fab-obsessed L.A. know him.
