What is the last picture or Lennon? Preferably something more like a headshot. I think I got close with this:
If this is the one, is there a version without the text?
Thanks all!

Yoko used a picture of John after he had died in one of his music videos but i cant remember which one, im not going to post it. According to the Daily Mirror 
However its written elsewhere that Annie Leibovitz took photos 5 hours before John was murdered. 
comes from that session.This one is certainly very similar to the one you posted Jackson but it looks to have very slight differences.

Allan Tannenbaum has published a book of that photo shoot: “John and Yoko, a New York Love Story.” I recommend it if this is a topic of interest to you.

It's in the “Woman ” video – the side photo of Lennon's head looking skyward (from the back cover of “Imagine “) dissolves into a similar head shot taken posthumously, inside a casket. A fairly chilling transition.

Offline Lennon was taken to the Roosevelt Emergency Room of the St Lukes-Roosevelt hospital.
I was working in the Emergency Room of the St Lukes ER.
When Roosevelt called to say they had Lennon and he'd been shot, we thought, “too bad he wasn't brought here!”
We saw gun shot wounds every night and people rarely died.
Then they called back a few moments later and said he was dead.
The ER got all quiet.

Offline It would have been the worst possible nightmare to have been in the emergency room as John had no chance of survival.

Oh wow, that's incredible.
I think it's great you're going through a phase,
and I'm awfully glad it'll all be over in a couple

Offline Actually the last photograph of Lennon ever taken, was him in a body bag in the NYC Morgue. An attendant sneaked and took the photo a few hours after Lennon arrived there. The next day he was cremated. The guy got $5,000 for the photo from the National Enquirer. I don't want to put it here as it could be pretty disgusting.

This would have been one of the last ones taken (from earlier in the day, but after the Annie Leibovitz shoot I think).

Offline I think that photo was taken a few hours before John was killed; leaving the Dakota and going to the studios. Im not going to give the guy in the pic beside John the satisfaction of being named, forever he should remain unnamed receiving no attention to him as that was what he wanted.

A good decision.
God , I really hate that photograph. It gives me the creeps.

Offline I remember the morgue picture being in either the Daily News or New York Post, so it should be retrievable.
Not really worth the effort in my opinion.
