Unseen Beatles photos from Tokyo

Photos copyright Genesis Publications

Genesis Publications is celebrating the 50th anniversary of The Beatles in Japan with a limited edition book of rare photos taken during the trip by Japanese photographer Shimpei Asai. The pictures have never before been published outside Japan. Genesis says Asai is the only Japanese photographer to have been given official access to The Beatles in Tokyo, and his photos, taken onstage and off-, have remained unknown to most outside Japan. 

The book will ship in November. More details on their website.
