Ok, gang I have a good one for you.
First of all, I realize that this is not a Ric thing, but it is a Beatle thing
all the same. I am looking for a duplicate of John Lennon's last guitar strap
as a Beatle, as seen in the Roof Top Concert.
I have been looking everywhere, stores, the net etc, with no luck.
Any ideas?

You do see these sorts of straps on Ebay but luck and patience will be needed.
I have an old one with a flying dove on it.

What was that odd strap John used on his Casino from the '66 US tour 'til the Revolution/Hey Jude music videos? Looks like a standard belt with holes put in for the strap buttons.

I had located that strap after an intensive Internet search and finally located it at a Japanese vendors site (I had to email as site was in Japanese) but it ended up being something like $130 US so I passed.

Are you POSING in front of a mirror or are you actually playing guitar?
Hello? There was only 1 John Lennon for heaven's sake! Be your own man!

Just a quick search of their site I found this, which is close to what the OP has in his first pic, they probably have the exact strap but it takes a while to look thru all of 'em.

To the OP: Have you googled "Vintage Bobby Lee Lennon Strap" yet? That might do the trick for ya!
