[rts] One of the neatest things I got for Christmas...

...was the very first album I ever owned, framed for hanging. Not a copy of it--the worn and scuffed up original my mom bought for me for Christmas in 1978. My sister Kat sent me this as a present, and I have to say I'm just tickled pink by it. :)

It's hanging up above me in Spare Oom at the moment:




The frame also holds the ticket to the Paul McCartney show I went to in Boston in 2002, and there was an envelope containing a copy of the Worcester Telegram story about George Harrison being spotted at Solomon Pond Mall . Here's a closer shot of it:



This means that I've received this album three times for Christmas--the first one in 1978, the CD issue in 1993, and the original again today!

Thanks, Kat! :)
