Alan Aldridge is known as an illustrator, poet and designer. Born in 1943, his career is phenomenal and his success, obvious. He set out designing covers for Penguin Books, and soon became art director at The Sunday Times, before creating record album covers and lyric books for the cream of 60’s London such as The Who, The Rolling Stones, Elton John and of course, The Beatles. This is the same guy who apparently won a drawing competition with Salvador Dali, partnered Oliver Reed in a drinking contest and rode through the Hollywood hills with Steve McQueen. Can you get much cooler than that, I don't think so.
And now you can get your hands on some iconic artwork as ‘His Royal Master Of Images’ designs for Paul Smith. This black leather card case with Alan Aldridge indian print interior features the Paul Smith signature logo embossment on the front.
If you're in need of a new wallet, then none will have more street-cred than this little number.

oh wow. i really like how the design is on the inside. the plain outside is like a clever disguise that's hiding something really cool.
