Description
It was way back in the 1970's. I captured this shot of Al, our mail carrier, as he had finished his route and was returning to the Montclair post office just a short distance away on Grove Street.

Love this old picture of your carrier and that old jeep, no longer used by the USPS. Brings back memories as I too retired from the USPS several years ago and saw these jeeps when I began my career...f/l

Thanks Karen! My dad worked for the USPS several years before this jeep model appeared. :)

Hey--I see something like this everyday by my mailbox...I guess he is driving a relic! Lovely as ever! FAV!
Kellice Swaggerty replied:
Thanks so much, Reynold! I guess the U.S.P.S. might eventually become an exhibition in the Smithsonian, :)

F/L Love your processing on this truck and the way you included the environment. The saturated colors make it pop!
