'Raiders of the Lost Ark' package mystery solved
Posted: 12/18/2012
CHICAGO (AP) — The University of Chicago has determined the source of a mystery package that the school received addressed to movie adventurer Indiana Jones.
The school received a replica of the journal from the movie "Raiders of the Lost Ark" that was addressed to Henry Walton Jones, Jr. — better known as Indiana Jones.
The Chicago Tribune's Red Eye reports (http://trib.in/12kCU8o) that the wrapped journal had fallen out of a separate package on its way from Guam.
An eBay seller in Guam was sending the journal to the highest bidder in Italy.
The U.S. Postal Service apparently sent the smaller package on for delivery to Chicago.
