Photographs taken by Dezo Hoffman during the February 8 afternoon rehearsal showNeil Aspinall sitting in for Harrison. And in The Beatles Off The Record by Keith Badman, Harrison’s sister Louise Caldwellrecalled: “The doctor said he couldn't do the Ed Sullivan Show because he had a temperature of 104! But they pumped him witheverything. He was thinking about getting a nurse to administer the medicine, every hour on the hour. Then the doctor suddenlyrealized that I was there and was his sister and he said to me, ‘Would you see to it? It's probably just as well that you're herebecause I don't think there's a single female in the city that isn't crazy about The Beatles! You're probably the only one whocould function around him normally’.” Dr. Jules Gordon of New York City was the house doctor at the Plaza Hotel from 1942until 1985. This album, given to one of his direct heirs in 1964, has been with the family ever since and has never before beenoffered for sale.567: Ed Clark Photograph of Minnie Pearl USD 200 - 300Ed Clark (American, 1912-2000) silver gelatin print of Minnie Pearl at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, titled "Opry, 1946" lowerleft margin and signed in ink in the lower right margin.
