The Beatles made a zebra crossing in North London world famous in 1969 when they shot the cover of their Abbey Road album there. The band all wore different suits and shoes, and now you could get your hands on John Lennon's. The two piece suit by Ted Lapidus is going under the hammer on New Years' Day. It previously sold at auction in 2005 for $120,000, and is now being sold on by an anonymous collector of Lennon memorabilia. John was very thin and 5'10, so it's a very slim suit.
