This envelope, postmarked April 21, 1938, was sent to the EndNotes blog on April 23, 2012 by Annie Shiffer. She found it in the belongings of her father, Roy S. Peterson. So much has changed in postage since 1938. The letter costs 3 cents to send, it was stamped both front and back, and there's no real address on it, just "Roy S. Peterson, Millwood, Wash. (No zip codes. Didn't yet exist. Nor did postal zones.) Photo courtesy of Annie Shiffer
