Standing in for Yoko & John - Launch of Give Peace A Chance

July 3rd 1969, From John Howard's book The Beatles Unseen-

Quote: Ringo pictured with Maureen, had to drink for both himself and John and Yoko at the launch of their classic, Give Peace a Chance. Ringo and his wife were standing in for the wild ones, who had been hospitalized after a car accident in Scotland en route to the launch. It took place at the humble Chelsea Town Hall, and there was not a very big turn out. But Ringo seemed to enjoy himself and I was lucky enough to get some good shots.
