披頭四故事館禮品部
the fab 4 store @ The Beatles Story

不曉得上次看了【利物浦】Beatles Story一文，因為文中沒有太多館內圖片的關係，是不是讓大家有種意猶未盡的感覺呢？沒關係！今天帶大家來瞧瞧披頭四故事館的禮品部。看看小小間的禮品部裡面販賣了多少披頭四相關的周邊商品！看到現在，大家應該也了解了天仙一慣的作風了：帶不走的、買不起的，全部拍拍拍！！拍下來。反正：＿ ＿ ，＿ ＿！[自己填... ]

The Beatles Story was probably a very unsatisfying article, especially if you happen to be a big-time Beatles fan.  There was too many photo options to choose from, so in the end, I decided to be a little selfish for once and enjoy the whole tour on my own.  This time, however, I've taken loads of photos for your enjoyment.  It's become a habit now, to take pictures of whatever I can't afford to buy!  Well, I don't see why not!  After all, it doesn't cost anything, does it!


各式各樣的CD。All sorts of Beatles music.


忘了裡面是啥。不過覺得設計的還蠻有質感的。
Can't remember what was inside, but I liked the design.


The Cavern Club的別針。披頭四曾在此club表演過。
Pins with the design of The Cavern Club, where the Fab 4 used to perform.


Penny Lane 路標造型鑰匙圈。
Key chain with the design of Penny Lane road sign.


披頭四故事館造型橡皮擦。
The Beatles Story eraser [rubber].

現在到了驚奇的時刻囉！雖然早已對各式各樣商品的誘惑免疫，但是看到這台機器，還是忍不住玩了一下。因為感覺很稀奇。至少我是第一次看過這樣的東西。想知道他是什麼嘛？

Now comes the interesting bit.  Even though I claim to be immune to all sorts of lures in these stores, this was one incident in which I was finally tempted.  The reason is because it was the first time I had seen this machine.  Do you know what it does?



用一枚1p的硬幣，加上50p的硬幣，放到機器上，推進去後，1p的硬幣會被壓成披頭四故事館的造型硬幣唷！不知道大家有沒有看過、玩過？雖然小小的，可 是我覺得這種小小的東西反而比其他商品更有紀念價值呢。我一共做了兩個。一枚自己留著。另外一枚送給了一位超級披頭四迷的朋友當作小禮物。

Feed a 1p coin, along with a 50p coin, and the machine will press the 1p coin into a little souvenir coin with the design of the Beatles Story logo.  I wonder if I'm the only one that had seen this for the first time.  Anyhow, I thought this little souvenir was even more meaningful than any other items sold in the store.  I made two of these, one for myself, and another for my friend who is a big-time Beatles fanatic.


這些都不是真的路啦...
These places don't really exist...



不知道看完這篇是不是有看得比較過癮呢？如果沒有的話，那我只好跟你說：你一定要親自來瞧瞧啊！
I wonder if this was satisfying enough?  If not, then I'd have to say: Come and see the place for yourself!


最後，還是要閃一下戰利品。不過我的只有兩三樣。大部分都不是我買的。
Finally, these are the items we bought from the store.  Mostly belong to my friend.  Only a few belong to me, temporarily.
