Correspondence to Petra Vogt, 1970-1971, undated

 File — Box: 4, Folder: 12

Scope and Contents

Correspondence includes a note from S.B.I., postmarked Paris, July 28, 1970, to Vogt in Italy, on the back of a printed Living Theatre notice for “Paradise Now.”

There are two letters on stationery from West Bengal. One dated April 7, 1971, is from Diana, mentioning that she had heard Petra had left Italy and Carol had died. The same letter also informed Petra that Birgit had told her that Petra was currently in Morocco making a movie with Pierre.

The second letter from West Bengal was from Gunter and Odile, who were in India studying the various aspects of the Indian culture, arts and religion and who urged Petra to travel to India and stay near them, undated but possibly 1971. Other undated items include a card from Mina in Berkeley, California (?), dated July 19th; a collage note with a photograph of Vogt and a separate photograph of the sender, “In London… I love you”; undated poem by Caroline, sent to Petra Vogt “from the Tent in Rome”; and an undated note addressed to Petra and Carol from Jimmy.
