Have you met Raffles? This dapper letter carrier served as the Postal Record's “spokesmodel” from 1907-1938, until he was replaced by a more modern-looking sketch—the appropriately nicknamed “Son of Raffles." Only time will tell if Raffles makes a comeback for the 21st century!

Made the trek to Mystic to join CT State Association of Letter Carriers annual Convention. We rely on USPS to get our mail, prescriptions, business items and more. I want to personally thank all postal workers for their public service & hard work through the pandemic & every day.
