Paul McCartney used his Pentax camera the same way he used his guitar: with total freedom. And in early 1964, the 21-year-old took his new camera on perhaps the most momentous musical journey of the 20th century: The Beatles’ invasion of America.<\/p>\n

On The Beatles’ first visit to the United States, Paul McCartney brought his Pentax camera. The pictures he took, long thought lost, were recently found, and are the basis of a book and photo exhibition.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hundreds of his photographs from that trip were recently rediscovered in McCartney’s archive: “It was really nice,” he said, “because I thought they were lost.”<\/p>\n

An exhibition of the images, collected in the book, “1964: Eyes of the Storm,” originated at the National Portrait Gallery in London. The show is now on view at the Brooklyn Museum in New York.<\/p>\n
