African National Congress Greetings Card - This greetings card was sent from Nelson Mandela to Sinn Féin Councillor Tom Hartley. The cover illustration, by Namibian artist John N. Muafangejo, shows people shaking hands and the message 'hope and optimism in spite of the present difficulties'. Inside the card is printed 'Let 1993 be a year of peace and progress to democracy'. Nelson Mandela and President FW de Klerk won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993 and it was in the following year that Mandela was inaugurated as President of South Africa.
