  • Certified Mail and Its First Day of Issue by Patrick Crosby a Stamp Collector Can Complete a Scott U.S
    Certified Mail and Its First Day of Issue By Patrick Crosby A stamp collector can complete a Scott U.S. back-of-the-book category with just one stamp valued at 75¢ mint or used. I’m referring to the 1955 Certified Mail stamp (Scott # FA1) which helped the U.S. Post Office Department (P.O.D.) inaugurate Certified Mail service. This stamp and Certified Mail become much more interesting when on cover, like the featured postcard’s first day of issue usage. Postmaster General Arthur Summerfield called the new Certified Mail service a “change in the registered mail service,” reducing costs to patrons and speeding delivery on at least 25 million letters a year. Registered mail requires special bundling, recording of information, and security at every handling point. For 15¢ Certified Mail would offer proof of mailing and proof of receipt with no indemnity (insurance) or special security on first-class items that have no intrinsic value as opposed to the minimum 40¢ registry fee. A patron would pay for first-class postage and the Certified Mail fee, then he would receive a numbered receipt. The mailed item would be entered into the ordinary mail stream (unless airmail or special delivery) with a two-part Certified Mail label, one part adhered to the envelope. When delivered, the carrier or postal employee was to have the receipt portion signed by a recipient, then remove the receipt portion where rouletted and return it to the delivery post office for filing. If the patron had requested a return receipt (showing when, where, and to whom an item was delivered) it would have been noted on the mailed item and a fee of 7¢ would have been paid for in postage.

  • Postal and Courier Services 8
    MODULE - III Service Sector 8 POSTAL AND COURIER Notes SERVICES Are you facing any difficulty while studying this course material? Have you been able to comprehend the lessons you have studied so far? If not, please feel free to write to National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) about your specific problems. The NIOS will definitely find out a solution to your problem. But the question is how will you convey your problems? In the previous lesson, you learnt about various means of communication. By using any of those means you can communicate with us. In that lesson, you also learnt that letters are very common and convenient means of written communication. If you write a letter to us, then how it will reach to us? Who will bring it to us? Well, it is the post office or any other private courier service provider, which will do it. It acts as a middleman between the sender and the receiver. The sender posts the letter at the post office and the post office takes all necessary steps to deliver the letter to the person concerned. In addition to this, the post office also performs some other services. In this lesson we will learn more about various services rendered by the post office. OBJECTIVES After studying this lesson, you will be able to: • explain the meaning and nature of postal services; • state various services provided by post offices and private courier services providers; • describe the importance of postal services; and • recognise the role of private courier services. 8.1 MEANING OF POSTAL SERVICES You must have been to a Post Office.

With the advent of the Word Processor the opportunity has been taken to convert these original hard copy indexes into electronic format, to amalgamate them into one document, and to bring the index up to date. From this point forward future indexing will be relatively straightforward and the index will be updated within a short period after each bulletin is published. To those members with a PC it will be available on-line, alternatively up-to-date hard copy prints will be available on request from the Publications Officer. The index now provides easy access to an enormous corpus of high quality information covering virtually every topic within British West Indies philately. As the number of subjects covered has expanded over the years it has been deemed necessary to sub-divide the topics under each colony heading into four separate categories, each entry being listed in alphabetical order.
