An Unexpected Mystery Envelope #5
I received another mystery envelope on Saturday, which was again at the 2 week mark from the last envelope. Photos and summary are after the jump to help avoid spoilers.

An Unexpected Mystery Envelope #4
The 4th envelope in the mystery series arrived here last week. It was postmarked 2 weeks after envelope #3, which establishes a pretty consistent 2 week schedule for the mailings. Once again it came to me from New York and contained an envelope that went to the Norway branch of the New York trading company.
Over the last week I've allocated my scanner to working on negatives for my photography tests, and I haven't worked in enough time to scan all the documents in this envelope (there was a lot to digest). If the 2 week mailing pattern continues, I should expect whatever comes next by this weekend, so rather than delay my summary I did a quick collage shot of the contents for this one. That, and my summary, are after the break to avoid spoilers

An Unexpected Mystery Envelope 2
Just when I had given up on leaping out the door at the sight of the mail truck, my Second Unexpected Mystery envelope arrived in today's mail. This envelope contained fewer documents, but does include an intriguing artifact. My photos are included after the jump, so as to protect googlers from accidentally coming across the images and potentially spoiling their stories.
(If you would like to catch up, envelope#1 is opened and analyzed here.)

An Unexpected Mystery - part 1
I received an unusual envelope in the mail today.
It actually arrived on Saturday, however I didn't check the mail over the weekend. The outer envelope was post-marked March 15th and came from New York. Inside was a sealed enveloped that appears to have originally been sent to this company in Norway.
The contents were... strange. A half page hand-written note, a comic book page, a newspaper clipping, two pages which appear to have been torn out of a diary, and an article printed from the internet.
I was baffled. I thought someone sent this to me by mistake. There is no name on the handwritten note, the internal envelope went to a company, not a person. I checked the tracking number on the outer envelope and that only confirmed that it came from New York. I googled the company, and with a few clicks I discovered that this is some kind of mystery to solve or story to follow... I'm still not entirely sure what I've been sent. But it seems as though it was meant for me.
And I'm completely impressed and delighted by this! It is like I'm being sent an X-File for Indiana Jones!
