This photo, taken by The Beatles' tour photographer Curt Gunther, shows the quieter, more intimate side of The Beatles as they rode in the back of their limo. Gunther was able to capture moments where the members of the band first experienced what it was like being massive, international celebrities, from the frenetic energy of airports and concerts to the serenity of the hotel rooms and limo rides.
