1963 Christmas
Mailing to Set
All-Time Record
Faced with the certainty that
Christmas 1963 will set an all-time
record for mailings of Christmas
cards and gifts, Postmaster Carl
Baumgartner today requested your
cooperation in his annual “Mail
Early For Christmas” Campaign.
The Postmaster said — “Here
are the things to watch to be sure
that every Christmas card and
gift package will he delivered be-
fore Christmas Eive.
First, check over your Christ-
mas card and gift list very care-
fully — be certain each address
is complete with full name, street
and number, or post office box
number if appropriate, city, state
and zone or ZIP Code number.
Second, stock up soon on sturdy
packing materials for your gift
packages, including heavy wrap-
ping paper, corrugated cartons,
strong cord and paper adhesive
tape.
Third, buy your postage stamps
now. Be sure to use the colorful
new five cent Christmas Tree
stamps on your cards.
Fourth, procure free labels from
your post office which read “ALL
FOR LOCAL DELIVERY” and
“ALL FOR OUT-OF-TOWN DE-
LIVERY”, so that you can sort
your Christmas cards into two
groups, with addresses all facing
one Way, thus insuring fast deliv-
ery.
Fifth, he sure that your full
name and address is on all of
your Christmas card envelopes
and shipping labels and be doubly
sure to include your ZIP Code
number in your return address.
The Postmaster especially re-
quests that you schedule your
Christmas mailings so that all of
your cards and gift packages go-
ing to mpst distant points are
mailed by December 10th. Those
for local destinations should be
mailed at least a week before
Christmas.
