In 1963, Paul McCartney said it was his dream to appear in The Dandy, a British children's comic magazine.
While he did appear in the final issue in 2012, he almost made it into an issue 59 years ago.
A half-finished strip has gone on display at Liverpool's Beatles Museum showing him waking up and catching a bus before being chased by fans.
It was created by cartoonist Nigel Parkinson who says, "It was nerve-wracking drawing Sir Paul. I've drawn lots of celebrities before and normally I capture them quite quickly.
"But I have been looking at him on TV since 1962, have seen him in magazines and I've seen him in concert a couple of times, so I thought it would be quite hard to capture all the different factors of his personality."
The strip also references lyrics to Beatles songs "A Hard Day's Night," "Ticket to Ride" and "I Want To Hold Your Hand."
McCartney later became animated in The Beatles cartoon series that aired on ABC from 1965 to '67.

The Beatles have released two more songs ahead of next Friday's deluxe edition of their seventh album, 1966's Revolver.
The first is a "Second Version / Unnumbered Mix" of Paul McCartney's "Got to Get You Into My Life," with the guitar filling the spots that would later be replaced with horns -- the first Beatles songs to feature brass.
The second song is one long credited to Paul. But, as the "Songwriting Work Tape Part 1" reveals, "Yellow Submarine" is truly a collaboration between him and John Lennon as Lennon is the one who wrote the melody and opening lines, while McCartney says he came up with the yellow submarine idea.
Ringo Starr sang "Yellow Submarine," and among those singing background and adding sound effects were George Harrison's wife, Pattie Boyd, Marianne Faithfull, producer George Martin, and Rolling Stones guitarist Brian Jones.
Two years later, the song would inspire and provide the title to the band's animated film.
