Misadventure

I sent this envelope to Alan (the UK). It was made out of an old encyclopaedia. But I did not realised the paper was too weak to resist the modern postal machines: two edges were broken and the envelope arrived empty.

I had seen this stamp online, and Fabienne was thoughtful enough to send it to me. Plus, on a hand-made envelope that perfectly match with the theme.

And still the forth on the postcard inside!
