This is the best summary I could come up with:
A Penny Lane street sign stolen by drunk students has been returned to Liverpool, 47 years after the theft.
Earlier this year, the Beatles Story museum in Liverpool was contacted by a man who said he wanted to send the “totally pristine” sign back to the city.
Dan Barrington, Liverpool city council’s cabinet member for transport, said: “The removal of street signs is a criminal offence which can lead to a prison sentence.
“However, given the history of this case and the fact this Penny Lane has got back to where it belongs after what looks like a long and winding journey, then I think we can all agree to just let it be.”
Steve Rotheram, the mayor of the Liverpool city region, said: “Penny Lane is so much more than a simple street that inspired a song all those years ago – it’s a music time capsule immortalised by those four boys who shook the world.
“That being said, it’s great to see something which holds so much significance finally returned to its rightful home after nearly half a century.”
