Minute with Marlin EP #7 - One Penny Postage!

from Plain Values Podcast · host Plain Values

We’ve been printing and mailing Plain Values for a long time using the postal system… and Marlin loves it.It’s expensive, but it’s great.In this charming Minute with Marlin, he shares a fascinating bit of postal history: the system began in 1775, before the Revolutionary War. Back then, the recipient paid the one-penny postage, not the sender. There was also an 11-pound weight limit.People took full advantage of that limit in creative (and sometimes hilarious) ways— including documented cases of parents mailing their children to grandparents!These short, heartfelt Minutes with Marlin deliver quick moments of wisdom, faith, humility, and encouragement… perfect for busy homestead days when we need a gentle reminder of what really matters.Learn more about Plain Values at https://plainvalues.com
