What startled the casual observer was not exactly Ringo; it was some thing a good bit farther out. It was the wire, paint, and papier-mache mock-up that Scarfe had put together for last week's TIME cover. The rest of the boys - George, Paul and John - were crammed into the Jag's back seat, and Scarfe was delivering them to TIME'S office on New Bond Street. There they were set up just as they were photographed for the cover, and put on display in a main floor window. They have been stopping crowds ever...
...game, took her bowling, and made no secret of his existence. Little notice was taken of the teenage romance, however, outside their circle of family and friends.

When Foote, Cone & Belding won the Clairol account in 1955, the agency assigned it to Shirley Polykoff, a Brooklyn-born mother of two who can write better advertising copy than most men in the game. She invented the Clairol girl-"clean, wholesome, casual. You can imagine meeting this girl at a P.T.A. meeting." As the campaign took off and the product line expanded, she posed more questions: "Is it true blondes have more fun?" (Lady Clairol).
