Sir Paul McCartney school book sells for £47k at Beatles auction
A school book Sir Paul McCartney used as a teenager has sold for £46,800 – nearly ten times its estimate.
The exercise book, which features a doodle of a man smoking and a teacher’s critical comments, sold at an auction of Beatles memorabilia in Newton-le-Willows, Merseyside.
Sir Paul, 76, used the exercise book at Liverpool Institute High School for Boys where he was taught English literature by Alan “Dusty” Durband.
