  • The Story of the US Postal Service
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 281 820 SO 018 202 TITLE We Deliver: The Story of the U.S. Postal Service. INSTITUTION Postal Service, Washington, DC. PUB DATE 80 NOTE 25p.; Illustrations will not reproduce clearly. PUB TYPE Historical Materials (060) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Government Employees; Government Role; *Public Agencies;_ United States History IDENTIFIERS *PoStal Service ABSTRACT This eight-chapter illustrated booklet chronicles the history of the U.S. Post Office from its establishment by the Continental Congress in 1775 to the present. Chapter 1, "The Colonists," describes the postal service before the Revolutionary War. Benjamin Franklin's appointment as the first Postmaster General of the U.S. and his many contributions to the postal serviceare covered in Chapter 2, "Father of the U.S. Postal Service." Chapter 3, "The Revolution and After," portrays the huge increase that occurred in the U.S. population from the time of Andrew Jackson to the Civil War, the resulting huge increase in mail volume that occurred, and the actions the postal system took to overcome the problems. In Chapter 4, "The Pony Express," the 18-month life span of the pony express is chronicled as are the reasons for its demise. Two Postmaster Generals, Montgomery Blair and John Wanamaker, are portrayed in Chapter 5, "Two Postal Titans." These two men provided leadership which resulted in improved employee attitudes and new services to customers, such as free rural delivery and pneumatic tubes. Chapter 6, "Postal Stamps," tells the history of the postage stamp, and how a stamp is developed. Chapter 7, "Moving the Mail," presents a history of the mail service and the different modes of transportation on which it depends.

  • Bibliography of Cuban Philatelic Literature -- Internet Edition Ernesto Cuesta
    Bibliography of Cuban Philatelic Literature -- Internet Edition Ernesto Cuesta Adelante--There are two entries for Adelante in this bibliography. The first one under <A> is for the philatelic journal Adelante published in Santiago de Cuba in the 1920s. The second one <ADEL> is for a non-philatelic newspaper from the 1930s that I also believe (but have not been able to confirm) was published in Santiago de Cuba from the content of some articles cited in this bibliography (see articles from 1935 under Compañía Cubana de Aviación). <A> Adelante (Onward) Santiago de Cuba (La Maya), Cuba: Journal of the "Club de Intercambio de Cuba" (Cuban Exchange Club).

I have written an introduction to the War of the Pacific, with a focus on the overprints. (I am saving the provisional issues for a future edition. Is anybody interested in writing one?) In this issue, Charles Wooster has written an article on the origin of the triangle overprints, and Willem de Gelder has granted permission to reprint a letter and supplemented it with his PowerPoint presentation on identifying the 11 triangle types. I want to thank Charles Wooster, Willem de Gelder and Guillermo Llosa for contributions and advice for this issue. We note the passing of Tom Myers. He was an active PPSC member and the previous editor of Trencito 2. Mr. Myers was also involved with COPAPHIL, the Colombia and Panama Philatelic Study Group, and was a Latin America columnist for Linn’s Stamp News. Tom will be missed by many.
