Mystery package for Indiana Jones arrives at University of Chicago

“Doctor Jones! I’m so glad you’re back! Your mail is on your desk.” Abner Ravenwood’s diary shows up addressed to Henry Jones, Jr. at the University of Chicago Admissions Office.

The University of Chicago received an unusual item in the mail: a package addressed to Indiana Jones, containing a handmade replica of Professor Ravenwood’s diary about the Ark of the Covenant, as well as some replica postcards, money and pictures of Marion. While the university admissions office is a little stumped, they have provided some great images of their parcel. In an article over at Club Jade, I’ve done a little digging into what this might mean.
