And after a long day of carting mail, nothing beats a trip across the street for COCKTAILS.

twotwentysix, so observant! Good laugh! No wonder the postman is smiling and looking so jaunty! Grateful to Smithsonian for posting all these!

Amazing image. I am very glad to see the Smithsonian doing what it should have done a long time ago: sharing public domain material.

That's my grandfather - Roy Byron Aler (1887-1975) who was the carrier for RFD 1 out of Harbor Springs, MI for about 45 years starting in 1912. The date on the license plate is 1914. I have some similar photos and related postings at: picasaweb.google.com/donorgan/ReSmithsonian#

Hi Don!
It's great to hear from you, and thanks for the link! I will certainly forward this onto my colleagues at the National Postal Museum.
Sincerely,
