Easter card from John Lennon’s mother Julia

This simple card was sent to John by his mother Julia in 1957. Julia was killed in a car accident the following year – one of the formative experiences of Lennon’s life. Here’s a transcription:

To my Stinker…
My dear Stinker, wink…
Don’t forget your mum’s crazy
But she loves you anyhow
See you when your (sic) 21
Lots of love, my sweet old feller
Mummy
