Hmmm - looks to me like we're dealing with a cereal trouble-maker.

We have also received similar strange letters, usually with a Tonbridge,
Kent, postmark and always written on the reverse of a piece of card from a
cereal packet.

How curious. We've had one identical, on brown
paper, received in April this year. It's filed in our comments system.

Subject: Reading Can Seriously Damage Your
Health
Hello all,
An odd question this. Today we recived
through the post a letter on which our address was just about correct
(enough, obviously, to get here). It was sent from Gatwick, and inside the
envelope was nothing but a piece of card cut from a cereal box - it looks
like 'All Bran'. On the back of the card is written, in block capital
letters:
You should of course be circumspect in
adding to that long line of books purporting or implying that "investment in
shares" is a secure hedge against inflation.
Beneath this, in big block capital red
letters is says:
Reading can seriously damage your health
Now, while this is in its own little way
quite amusing, its also slightly strange and has got a couple of the staff
here a little worried, and I just wondered if any other libraries had
recieved such enigmatic mail like our letter? Anyone?
Cheers,
Peter Collins
