The Beatles and their touring van in England, 1963; photo by Dezo Hoffmann, scanned from With The Beatles: The Historic Photographs of Dezo Hoffmann.

“There were a lot of good times in the van; all the rough-and-tumble stuff that happens. And there were some hysterical things that happened. I had a good crash once. We were coming over the Apennines, the roads were icy and I was driving pretty quickly as we came through what turned out to be Goole in Yorkshire. Everything was fine until suddenly I went into a right-hand turn. It was a bit sharper than it looked and we went up onto the grass bank, which then sloped down to the left. The whole van tipped as we went down the embankment, at the bottom of which was a wire-mesh fence with concrete posts around a Burton’s factory.We bounced along — bump, bump, bump — knocking down all these concrete poles and finally came to a stop with Neil [Aspinall] sitting in the front seat next to me, howling, ‘Ow, ow, my arm!’ The accident had ripped the filler cap off and the petrol was pouring out. We got out and had to shove T-shirts and things into the hole to try to stop the flow of petrol.We’d started to push the van back up on the road when, out of nowhere, came, ‘’Allo, ‘allo, what’s all this then?’ It was a cop, and he booked us for crashing. A couple of months later I went to court; Brian came with me for moral support. (He did stand by his lads.) I think they banned me for three months.” - George Harrison, The Beatles Anthology (x)

fun fact about the last photo: George has a black eye, because he was involved in a fight with a Pete Best fan, who was upset about Ringo being the new drummer. Dezo Hoffmann tried different angles and lightning to hide it.
