The “Parcel Post Bank” Was Mailed To Its Construction Site, A Few Bricks At A Time

from Cool Weird Awesome with Brady Carlson · host Brady Carlson

This day in 1916 was an important day in US Postal Service history - a rule change that came after the community of Vernal, Utah basically had a bank mailed to them, in installments of bricks. Plus: a developer in England tore down a pub that was considered a historic site, so they had to put the original pub back up in its original location with the original bricks.
