Merry Christmas!!!

I would be excited! I'd love to see what the card looked like, the penmanship and the postage stamp. Must be nice!

Hehe thats the postal service!

Just goes to show how fast the post office works!

Warp zone. The ONE nice cacodemon in there sent it back.

nice

I thought it was a neat story.

holy cow
that is so awesome

I wonder if my mailman is responsible for that. He's an idiot!

would have to see the evidence. cannot believe that.

kinda a little late now....she's dead n all, and whoever sent it is probly gunna be upset the don't get one back

i wonder how many card of mine are jammed under the conveyor belts =/

thats a bit late.
Merry christmas to you too.

Since I do the geneology in our family, and am a history buff due to this, I would think this would be absolutely fantastic to receive. Even, check out the stamp! Somehow, the card was lost in the post office, I would imagine, and, luckily, someone thought enough of the mail to get it through, however late! What a wonderful gift for Chirstmas season! I think it is wonderful. It would. certainly, bring me a lot of joy and excitement!

That's pretty amazing. Seemingly how it probably been sitting on a shelf and a kind post master just decided one day, "maybe I could get this out to her..."

the postal service is a joke now so it really does not surprise me and it wont surprise me if it happens again

That is hard to believe

This is absolutely wonderful. Maybe someone forgot a mailbag one day and it just got put to the side or maybe the letter was dropped somewhere that nobody ever looked until that many years later. Never know. I'll bet it made someones Christmas very special. Merry Christmas to you, too.

Christmas Postcard arrives 2 days later

I win

Is that for real? If that is true then that is a miracle!
Merry Christmas!

Just some postal employees blowing their own horn for past screw ups. I read the article too. They sent the post card in an envelope with the correct modern postage for the sole purpose of further inflating the issue because the post office is still bound to deliver the original card (for it's original stamp price) to the correct address no matter how much time transpires or return it to the original sender. They did neither nor could they do either so technically it's dead mail and should have disposed of. I got the impression the person they finally delivered it to could actually have given a damn...resulting in a "take this so we can make ourselves look good" scenario.

That is pretty cool. I hope the Christmas cards that I just sent out this week won't take that long to be sent to my friends and family.

I heard they sent it back COD, since the price of a stamp has gone up in the last 93 years - Happy Holidays

Yes, was there any explanation with the card at all? It may have some historical value soon (7 more Years) keep it and preserve it . I have received one that was delayed for a few years, the explanation was that it was found behind a machine, and it was mostly stained black with the address still readable. When the machines are replaced, or some remodeling goes on, they find them lodged in some crevices, It is nice that they will still deliver, if the address is intact. Hold on for any value. The Post Office Employees are humanoids, Wish them a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
