Read It! In February 1964, an 18-year-old man named Mike Mitchell went to a rock concert in Washington, D. C. He shot
photos of the band from just a few feet away. Forty-seven years later, those pictures sold for $361,938. The band
was The Beatles and the concert was their first ever in the United States. There are very few photos from that
memorable concert. Mitchell's black-and-white photographs are close-up action shots of the band. That could be
one reason why the photos brought in so much money.
