Today, I offer you another COVID Card first: Alfred Sessler is the first post office muralist to pop-up on the Antiques Roadshow website. You can see more examples of his work on the websites for Wisconsin Visual Art Achievement Awards, Luther College Fine Arts Collection, and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.

Sessler created on post office mural: Gager’s Trading Post on the Wadsworth Trail (Morris, Minnesota).

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.
