Fabrizio De André’s handwritten note dedicated to Pepi Morgia is better known as the “napkin”, Morgia was a scenographer and lighting technician, and, from his first appearance on Faber's stage, De André’s friend. The 1981/82 tour touched some of Europe’s  foremost stages such as that of Vienna and it was during a "boozy" evening on this tour that De André gave “the napkin” to Morgia.
Pepi, kept the "gift" for many years, and only made it public in the decade after the death of the songwriter with whom he had shared a long “journey”.
