(Gibson) A Beatles-themed museum opened in Buenos Aires, Argentina, this week, featuring the treasures of one man's personal collection.

"It is the only museum on The Beatles catalog which belongs to a private collector," said Argentine collector Rodolfo Vazquez in the Buenos Aires newspaper Tiempo Argentino. "It's really unique in the world [other than] The Beatles Story in Liverpool."

In 2001, Vazquez qualified to join the Guinness Book of World Records because of his 8,500-item collection of Beatles memorabilia. Notable objects include photos and clothing that belonged to the Fab Four, checks signed by band members, and even a box of condoms featuring Yoko Ono and John Lennon's image. more on this story
