Mr. McFeely reminds you that postage goes up today
(Monday 5/11) to .44 cents for a letter.
Initially, there were few or no postal regulations governing packages mailed parcel post.
To construct a bank in Vernal, Utah in 1916, a Salt Lake City Company figured out that the cheapest way to send 40 tons of bricks to the building was by Parcel Post.
Each brick was individually wrapped & mailed.
Postal rules were promptly rewritten.
