And even though I've heard many horror stories about the USPS, I've never had a problem with them. Though I do still wished they carried those beat-up leather mail bags...

Slap my name and "cabinet maker" on the side and what a hell of a delivery vehicle. I want that mail truck in the bottom picture.

I am sorry to see the deterioration of the postal service uniform, as noted last week at my local PO where the staff all wore USPS polos. Sharp uniforms demand attention to detail - an element that this particular PO unfortunately apparently lacked. Thanks for a trip back in postal time. Great set.
