The coincidental package

Artist Mike Mitchell found a box on his doorstep. Inside was a note and an improbable object from Mitchell's past.

As one of my photographer friends, Brett Littlehales, pointed out later, it was even amazing that the tape had lasted for 45 years. He also observed in a typically exuberant way, "the chances of this happening are...are...like winning the lottery...no!...no!...more like winning the cosmic lottery!"
