When opening her mailbox on one of the last April days Nadine learned how infinite relief looks like. It is light yellow and measures about 8.5 x 4.5 inches...






Like many other envelopes this one contained a letter, too. Since it is rather difficult to make out the words on the picture below we're providing you with a transcription:

Dear Nadine,

Thank you so much for the wonderful 'love-linked' present sent to Alan Rickman for his birthday. What a remarkable object - so individual and interesting. It is an exceptional gift indeed and sent with such integrity and kindness from each and every contributor. I know Mr Rickman will be touched by the efforts of all those who took part, not forgetting those who organised such a mammoth project.

I have of course forwarded it to Mr Rickman. I don't know how easy it would be for you to send thanks to all those who contributed but if it is possible please forward Mr Rickman's appreciation for everyone's efforts in putting together such a unique and personal present.

With kind regards

Yours sincerely


MELANIE PARKER
For and on behalf of Alan Rickman
