This has been a good week or two for new pieces of memorabilia: all things not previously seen or reproduced to my knowledge. The best ones I'm keeping back for the exhibition and the book. One of them is a postcard to Pat and Sue Johnstone from Freddie Mercury written in 1974 which is completely brilliant. Another is the contract with Queen for the Tregye Festival in 1971, which Dave Stone from St Austell let me copy.
I thought this picture of Dave and a friend sitting in front of one of The Magicians Workshop 'magic murals' was interesting too. Magician's Workshop (Gerry Gill and John Lumley-Saville) did the sound and lighting for a couple of the Queen gigs in Cornwall. This 'mural' was 3 or 4 four times bigger than the frame of the photograph below and created using luminous paints that responded to light.
