Ok well im convinced that there are more, even bigger clues to be discovered with Sgt. Pepper, and ive read people saying that they think the list of people who appear on the cover is spelling it out for us. So here are some interesting facts
3. Mae West - Last film 1978 Sextette also staring tony curtis, also on cover.
8. Edgar Allen Poe - A Sergeant Major at West Point
9. Fred Astaire - featured in John Lennon and Yoko Ono's 1973 film Imagine.
13. Huntz Hall - Arrested 1948 marijuana possetion but acquitted.
15. Bob Dylan - Serious motorcycle accident in july 1966, in seclusion till late 69 (replacement period?)
18. Aldous Huxley - Injected by his wife with pure LSD on his death bed on 22 november 1963 (date ring any bells? well, writer C.S lewis died of kidney failure that day and a man named John Fitzgerald Kennedy was shot in Dallas)
19. Dylan Thomas - Died November 9 1953 (one of the supposed dates of JPM's death)
25. Marilyn Monroe - Romantically linked with JFK
46. Stephen Crane - Author of "The Open Boat", inspired by an actual experience while he was a war correspondent, his ship was sunk and he spent a week witha few survivors in a lifeboat, some of it in rough weather, during this period got tuberculosis that lead to his death aged 28.
48. George Bernard Shaw - Only person to receive a Nobel Prize (for literature 1925) and an Oscar (Pygmalion 1938)
58, 71, 73. Shirley Temple - Youngest ever oscar winner aged 6.
67. Marlene Dietrich - Slept with JFK
