DS, one page both sides, 8 x 13, October 15, 1968. An original Memorandum of Agreement between Maclen (Music) Limited, John Lennon and Paul McCartney, and Northern Songs Limited for royalties related to the Beatles song ‘Dear Prudence,’ which appeared on the group’s 1968 self-titled album, otherwise known as the ‘White Album.’ Signed at the conclusion in black felt tip by John Lennon, and countersigned in black ballpoint by Neil Aspinall. In fine condition. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks.
The song was written by John Lennon during the Beatles’ trip to Rishikesh, India in early 1968, it was inspired by actress Mia Farrow’s sister, Prudence Farrow, who became obsessive with meditating while practicing with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Her designated partners on the meditation course were John Lennon and George Harrison, who both attempted to coax Farrow out of her seclusion, which led to Lennon writing the song that appeared on the band’s 1968 self-titled album.
