Happy New Year Wishes from Mehmet Ali Agca - Attempted Assassin of Pope John Paul II

This is an authentic, framed Christmas and New Year card hand-signed in pencil by Mehmet Ali Agca, the Turkish gunman who shot Pope John Paul II in St. Peter's Square in 1981. The front displays a traditional Nativity scene; the reverse carries Agca's handwritten message, "With The Wishes for a Happy New Year," along with his printed name and signature, mailed from his prison cell in Rome in January 1984. The display includes the original Rome-postmarked envelope and a notarized letter of provenance from the original Canadian recipient, with a rear observation window so the signed reverse can be viewed. A genuinely rare piece of Cold War and Vatican history for serious collectors of historical autographs and 20th-century memorabilia.
