Have you ever wanted to write to Indiana Jones? Well, if you did, you would be about 80 years too late. But that didn’t stop one fan from sending him a package to him. A package recently arrived at the University of Chicago addressed to Henry Walton Jones, Jr. and now a race is on to solve the mystery.



When they opened the package, they found a bunch of stuff related to Indiana Jones movie mythology inside a manila envelope. There’s a journal penned by Abner Ravenswood, Indy’s academic mentor and father of Marion Ravenswood. The book was dusty, with weathered inserts and many postcards/pictures of Marion, as well as old replica money.

You can read more about package over on the University’s of Chicago’s Admissions tumblr page here and here, and hi-res images over on Dropbox.

The university wants to know who to thank for such an awesome stunt.
