George Harrison's Sister Robbed
Pictures of former Beatle George Harrison were taken from his sister's car Sunday while she was donating memorabilia to the Clinton Presidential Library.
Lou Harrison says someone shattered a window of her car and stole a briefcase containing photos of her and brother and the lyrics to a number of her brother's songs.
"(The items are) precious to me obviously because I don't have my brother in person any more," she told CBS News Affiliate KTHV-TV of Little Rock.
George Harrison died of cancer, at the age of 58, in November 2001.
Lou Harrison says she had driven from her southern Illinois home to donate memorabilia to the downtown Little Rock library, which is scheduled to open Nov. 18. She had taken most of the items to the library when she went back to the car in the parking lot, saw the smashed window and realized what had happened.
Harrison is appealing to Beatles fans to help her recover the memorabilia. "I would like to ask the people who are a part of my global family of Beatle people, maybe they could keep an eye on the Internet," she said.
Harrison said she decided to donate the items because she sees a connection between Clinton and The Beatles.
"I feel that really, Clinton is the Beatle president," Harrison said. "There's not enough things to leave for my grandchildren. So I thought maybe if I could house them at the Clinton Library, where they could be on display, that all the Beatle people could enjoy seeing them."
