APPLE SCRUFFS The Apple Scruff Monthly Book (Fantastic & extremely nostalgic 1971 UK only 9-sheet fanzine produced by the 'Apple Scruffs', who were a bunch of people who seemed to live almost permanently on the steps outside the Apple Building. They became so much a part of the scene at Apple that they eventually designed Apple Christmas cards for them. This astonishing curio is photocopied single sided sheets, stapled together to form a booklet, much in the style of the 'Fanzine' tha

Tracklisting: t was to surface but five years later. For the princely sum of 10p [which would happily buy you a cup of tea then, even in London], you could treat yourself to cartoons, jokes, words of wisdom & fashion advice from the celebrated Scruffs. At the same time, happy in the knowledge that you'd helped them along in their world record breaking Step sitting marathon. As a special bonus, this issue comes with a fold out cartoon that makes a rather pointed comment about the then current fashion of everybody sueing each other, with Mr McCartney coming in for particular attention! I have absolutely no idea if this was the one and only issue, but 1971 was nearing the end for the Scruffs and indeed Apple too. A wonderful item)ÞÞFrom Wikipedia: The Apple scruffs were a loosely-knit group of hardcore Beatles fans who were known for congregating outside the Apple Corps building and at the gates of Abbey Road Studios in London during the waning days of Beatlemania in hopes of seeing or interacting with the band members. The Beatles' song "She Came In Through the Bathroom Window" (Abbey Road, 1969) refers to the day that some of the Apple scruffs climbed into Paul McCartney's house via an upstairs bathroom window and raided his wardrobe for a pair of trousers which they took turns wearing. They also stole a framed photograph, which they later returned at McCartney's request. Following the break-up of the Beatles, George Harrison wrote a song titled "Apple Scruffs" which appeared on his solo album 'All Things Must Pass'. In 1985, one of the Apple scruffs, Carol Bedford, published a memoir of her experiences as a fan, 'Waiting for the Beatles: An Apple Scruff's Story'.
