The Smithsonian is happy to join the
Flickr community. Take a short survey and tell us how we’re doing.
The Smithsonian National Postal Museum, located near the U.S. Capitol, is
devoted to presenting the colorful

Mail transported our national culture,
promoted capitalism, migration,
community and identity formation. It
provided a communication link that
encouraged the formation of like
citizenry long before the birth of the
Internet. These images provide a peek
into this intriguing history. To learn
