George Harrison smiles as he performs to a screaming audience during an early concert in the Beatles career.
Robert Freeman was always drawn to creating montages of photographs, as evidenced by the several other montage options listed - but more obviously this is seen in his end credits for A Hard Days Night, where the many images of the Beatles were arranged and photographed in stop-motion style resulting in an animated effect.
Freeman is responsible for five consecutive UK album covers during the peak years of "Beatlemania," from 1963 to 1965. His work was featured on With The Beatles, A Hard Days Night, Beatles For Sale, Help! and Rubber Soul. He also designed and photographed the covers for John Lennon's two books In His Own Write (Simon & Schuster, 1964) and A Spaniard in the Works (Simon & Schuster, 1965) and the end credit sequences of their two films: A Hard Days Night and Help!.
