A collection of three postcards sent by Noel Redding between 1992 and 1993. The cards were sent to André Pallat who worked with Jimi Hendrix, Mitch Mitchell and Noel Redding making clothes for the group in 1966. The first postcard dated 12th October 1992 and reads:

'Dear André, Thanks for your letter - of course I remember you!! Hope you're well. Glad you enjoyed Carol's book. All those clothes you sold Hendrix all being sold at Sotheby's for fortunes. Mitch just sold another couple of weeks ago. £9,500. Mitch lives somewhere near you don't know where his land no was (04246) 2854. If you're ever in Ireland give us a ring. Best wishes Noel Redding'

The second is dated 28th March 1993 and reads:

'Dear André, thanks for your note. Sounds like you're doing ok as a survivor. Have you any old photos of us lot? If so I'd like to have a look if poss. Strange about Mitch! his Parents would know where he is 081-578-7643 but he's at 107 Hastings Road Battle (0424) 772854 on fax (0424)772097 you should find him- anyway best wishes good luck Noel (Redding)'

The third is dated the 15th June 1993 and reads:

'André Thanks for your tape and letter had a listen, you should try a better studio for sound quality as the playing sounds up to standard. Re Senia's etc. having been here for 21 yrs I don't know anyone. Did you contact Mitch? Best wishes Noel'

The largest postcard measures 19.5cm x 12cm (7.6 inches x 4.7 inches). The condition is very good.

Provenance: accompanied by a letter from the recipient which reads: 'In 1966 when Jimi Hendrix first came to London, I joined with a friend making clothes for Jim, his Band and others. My main contribution was painting on silk waistcoats (although not the famous one on the album cover). After reading Noel (Redding's) book about the Hendrix years, I wrote to Niek and he was good enough to reply and we shared a few correspondences. Alas, I never got to visit him in Ireland.'
