Buying Stamps From Rural Wagon, United States Post Office (1903 Original Black & White Film)

Step back in time with this charming black and white film from 1903! Witness a typical mail delivery on a quiet street.

A postman, carrying a hefty mail sack, approaches a house. He climbs the stairs of a quaint front porch, rings the doorbell, and waits patiently. A woman answers the door, and the postman hands her a letter or package. With a courteous nod, he turns and descends the stairs, continuing his route.

This silent film offers a heartwarming glimpse into the daily routine of a postman and the personal touch of mail delivery in the early 20th century.
