don't know how scientific this is but if you measure from nipples to navel on any male torso you'll come up with a pretty consistent triangular measurement. one that i THINK is a lot different between paul and bill.....just as it would be between any OTHER two, different guys who were two different sizes, hee hee hee...
true- it wouldn't be the easiest thing to do with precision, but......does anyone know original paul's suit size? i don't think it'd be too difficult to discover the size of faul's SGT. PEPPER jacket....they won't be the same.

unrepentant, very true. I wish I knew Paul's real suit size. He seemed to go up & down in weight quite a bit. I would guess that since he had his suits made, that he would ask for a panel of extra material to be built into the waist of the jacket & pants. I don't know how common a practice that was in those days. Still , he would have to start off with a small size for when he was in his thin periods. I also researched shoes made with lifts built in. I looked at a few styles. You really can't tell that they have lifts built into them. They give a person up to 3 inches more in height. Amazing ! There is one place in London that custom makes shoes like that. It's been in business since before Paul would want to get lifts in his shoes ! I noticed in the Salibury Plain photo session from Help, that Paul was a very small guy. He had very narrow shoulders. The suit he was wearing at that time did not have shoulder pads built in. I think that alot of his suits did have shoulder pads built into the jackets, to give him a bigger appearance. I really don't think he liked being a smaller man.   Look at the cuffs on his pants. They look like they've been taken up at least 2 inches ! Bill was tall enough that I rather doubt he ever had HIS pants taken up  I agree with you completely concerning the Sgt. Pepper Jacket. The sizes wouldn't be the same at all ! I wonder if anyone ever noticed that Paul never wore the same clothes after late 1966 that he wore before. He must've had an entirely new wardrobe ! Bill's shoulders & hips are so much wider than Paul's were. No matter how thin Bill became, the difference is still painfully obvious. He's a BIGGER man !   |

  Sometimes in SMA galleries gems are found. Among tons of doctored pictures there are some still "untouched". This is one of them. James Paul McCartney UNDOCTORED. |
