Former Beatle Ringo Starr is lifting the lid on the assortment of previously unseen photographs from the Fab Four within their heyday from his personal collection, in a very new photography book due out the following month.

"Photograph," which is to be released as a possible e-book on Apple's iBookstore on June 12, will coincide with a Grammy Museum exhibit on Starr, entitled "Ringo: Peace & Love," the book's publishers said on Wednesday.

A fixed-edition hand-bound book signed by Starr will likely be available to buy in December.

It would include photographs through the musician's childhood in Liverpool, England, to his route to fame as part of the Fab Four, with Paul McCartney, John Lennon and George Harrison.

"They're shots that nobody would have," Starr, 72, said in the statement.

Highlights through the collection include behind-the-scenes candids of the Beatles inside their daily lives and Starr's travel photography as being the band toured the globe.
