We are four or five magicians...
...who spend our time casting wonderful spells, and sending Beatle-y emails to each other. After several centuries of this one of us put down his computer and said, "Why not turn it into a blog already?" And that, kiddies, is how the zebra got his spots.

Dezo Hoffman?
More important question: Did Paul realize that his was the girliest outfit? ;)
haha! i love all those funny group pictures of the beatles :D
I believe Dezo Hoffman is the correct answer.
Here are some of Hoffman's home movies taken at the same photo shoot:

Of course, a snippet a photo ended up on the Revolver cover.
One of my favorite pastimes is to explore the songs that influenced the Beatles. For example, Smokey Robinson did IVE BEEN GOOD TO YOU which inspired Lennon to create THIS BOY and SEXY SADIE

Is this the earliest example we have of a John Lennon composition? When he was still a silver beetle he helped Johnny Gentle compose Ive Just Fallen For Someone. Lennon contributed to the middle eight. The song sounds pretty ordinary, but the middle eight suddenly soars, so maybe it is true. Here is a link to the song:
