Lost beatles album cover will be auctioned Tuesday

LOS ANGELES (AP) - The cover to a Beatles album that never was made is being auctioned. An untitled 1968 painting by artist Jim Dine will be sold by Bonhams auction house in Los Angeles on Tuesday. The gray and blue painting shows toothbrushes in a cup with the words “John,“ “Paul,“ “George” and “Ringo” emanating from the tops of the brushes. Capitol Records commissioned the painting. It’s been in the private collection of former Capitol Records president Sal Ianucci all this time. It’s expected to sell for between $25,000 and $35,000.
