Postcards to Buddy
In 2004, the Buddy Holly Center started an ongoing project entitled
Postcards to Buddy. In remembrance of Buddy Holly and his music,
fans from around the world created and mailed in original postcards
honoring the Rock ‘n’ Roll legend. The Buddy Holly
Center is expanding upon the success of this original concept
and is putting out the call for postcards to be contributed for a
new exhibit to be featured in the museum’s Texas Musicians
Hall of Fame from August 12, 2008 through March 22, 2009.
Postcards to Buddy will be on exhibit as we celebrate Buddy Holly’s
72nd birthday on September 7, 2008 and as we remember Buddy on
February 3, 2009, the 50th anniversary of his death. Buddy Holly
fans are asked to create and mail in original handmade standard
size (4 x 6 inch, 10.16 x 15.24 cm.) postcards expressing their
appreciation and love of Buddy and his music. Included with the
exhibit will be a world map displaying where the postcards have come
from and how far Buddy’s legacy has spread.
The submission deadline is July 18 for postcards to be included
in the exhibit, however the Buddy Holly Center will continue to
accept postcard submissions throughout the year. Participants can
mail their postcards to: Buddy Holly Center, 1801 Crickets Avenue,
Lubbock, Texas 79401. All postcards submitted will become the
property of the Buddy Holly Center.
