The Plain Dealer, the morning daily here in Cleveland, had a lady that wrote the Rock & Roll page of the weekly Friday entertainment section. She couldn't get over the White Album being...well, WHITE, so she ran a "Design a Beatles Album" art contest. I entered a cheesy black & white ink drawing ala REVOLVER without all the photos & less cartoony. I wound up being one of the five 1st prize winners which was the complete Beatles catalog on LP. My name was in the paper & on the radio. I was really wound up about the whole thing. My folks even bought me a stereo that Christmas. Pretty big deal for a 16 year old kid.
