This card dates to when Hendrix and the Experience departed England to begin their second tour of North America in 1968.

A remarkable rock and roll keepsake, filled out by Hendrix at the peak of his powers—in 1968, Billboard named him the Artist of the Year and Rolling Stone declared him the Performer of the Year.
