his rights to the game to Milton Bradley for a sum of $500. Initially produced
by Milton Bradley in 1965, Operation is currently made by Hasbro, with an
estimated franchise worth of $40 million.

Elvis Presley played host to The Beatles in his Bel Air, Los Angeles home on Friday evening August 27, 1965. They met for the first and only time. There are no known pictures of them together because the press had not been invited and no recordings
were made of their meeting and impromptu jam session as part of the fundamental ground rules and planning that had been made three days in advance.
