COVID Card #160

October 12, 2020 | 0 comments

It has become extremely clear that I have a great fondness for old school animation — particularly the backgrounds. Post office muralist (Grape Pickers, Saint Helena, California) and talented animator, Lew Keller, seems to be largely unknown these days. The closest I could find to a bio comes, surprisingly, from IMDB, and even that is pretty sparse.The site fails to mention this little gem:

I for one think his work deserves more attention. COVID Card #160 was inspired by Lew.

COVID Cards

The United States Postal Service has been hit hard by the pandemic. Controlling elements of the Federal Government (the president and Republican Senate) do not want to provide aid to the service. So, it’s up to us. It may seem insignificant, but if we all sent just a few letters a week, we could help ensure that our daily, free mail delivery service continues. For the past (see the card number above) days, I have drawn a card each day and mailed it to someone the next day (none are sent on Sundays; two are sent on Mondays). Please consider mailing cards and letters while we still can for 55 cents (first class letter postage). If the USPS fails, you could find it costs $8 or more to send a letter. And that’s just one of the ways we will all lose if the USPS shuts down.
