COVID Card #238

Philip Howard Francis Dixon Evergood had many names. So many names had… Anyway…the art world knows this post office muralist as Philip Evergood. Evergood created one post office mural: Cotton from Field to Mill (Jackson, Georgia). The mural was one of 16 to be covered this year because (presumably) of offensive content. Some of Evergood’s work can be seen at the website for the Smithsonian American Art Musem.

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.
