Although it is true that this is a bust coming from the home of John, the real question that needs to be asked and answered is who exactly was the bust made to resemble?

The answer to this question is one that is just now coming to light - the bust was made to resemble Walt Disney. Walt died in December, 1966, after the Sgt. Pepper sessions had commenced. This bust was placed on the cover to signify that even after his life he would have a major impact on this world.
