This insert that came with the Rolling Stones' 1969 LP Let It Bleed promoting the Rolling Stones Fan Club struck me a slight incongruous. With the possible exception of new Stone Mick Taylor, these guys just look well past the tenny-bopper/fan club phase by this point in their career. A fun artifact, nevertheless.

I am currently reading Bill German's book, "Under Their Thumb" which describes exactly how this came to be. A 16 year old kid from Brooklyn became obsessed with he Stones and started writing a fanzine called Beggars Banquet. It was so good that Keef told his mom if she ever needed to know where he was, to ask Bill German. The Stones co-opted Beggars Banquet by starting this fan club
