Remember?
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore...
I ran across this cover.
Did you know that "Postique" is a US Post Office (and I assume a USPS) trademark???
It seems that there was one in Houston in 1980, and I seem to remember one in West Palm Beach also. I think they have now gone the way of the Passenger pigeon.
Anyone know of any still operating - remember going to one? I do remember that the clerk actually knew what you were talking about and presented you with exactly what you wanted from new issues. Sigh....
