Julian Lennon
Though not a book, nor a print item per se, this item which certainly has both Beatle connections and print-related qualities, is a very rare and difficult item to find!
First of all, the Beatles connection is that Julian of course is John Lennon’s son, and being a son of a Beatle gives one the license to post this item here.
In the 80’s, when Julian began his musical career with the excellent Valotte album, little is known that he also signed a contract with Fuji products in Japan to promote some of their products. A rare vinyl promo record was released in Japan only, containing a single track called “Fuji Girl.”
I have followed Julian’s career quite closely over the years but lacked knowledge of this release until I spotted it on an Ebay auction a couple of years ago. I was both pleased and surprised of learning of its release. This offered further evidence that there are always collecting surprises lurking around out there in Beatle-related circles.
Here are a few photos of my copy of the rare Julian Lennon promo of Fuji Girl!
I have also included a signed print of the cover of his latest LP entitled “Jude.”
