Last but not least: Better late than never
An English folk singer received an encouraging letter from John Lennon after nearly 40 years. The letter was presumably withheld at the time because it could be worth money. The letter is now worth over 11,000 francs.
In 1971, the then 20-year-old British singer Steve Tilston said in an interview with the music magazine Zig Zag that he was afraid that success could destroy his career. He also hoped that his creativity would not suffer as a result of his eventual wealth. Lennon had probably read this interview and wrote an encouraging letter to his colleague, including his telephone number. Tilston only found the note five years ago - it had ended up with an American collector. Allegedly because the magazine sold the letter directly at the time... fortunately, the good guy finally got around to reading the message. Even if a phone call with John is unfortunately no longer possible. Let's hope that he hasn't lost heart even without his encouraging words.
