Memorabilia - Beatles Related - A Smiths Mechanical Timer from Abbey Road Studio No 2. This example was used in Studio 2 in the 1960s and 1970s and still has the strip of paper glued to the face which bears faded red writing 'NO. 2 STUDIO'. As many Beatles recordings were made in Studio 2 during this time it is highly likely to have been used by George Martin during those recordings and therefore a lovely piece of Beatles & Abbey Road history. Provenance: From the private collection of Andy Clark who was a member of the band BeBop Deluxe who recorded in Studio 2 in 1976. The item was gifted to Andy by Abbey Road Assistant Sound Engineer & Tape Operator Haydn Bendall as it was now obsolete and destined for the skip.
