Parcel Post. !!!
Saturday. 13th June. 1920.
On this day in 1920 the US Postal Department officially ruled that children could not be sent by parcel post.
And here's me thinking that all children were found under a Gooseberry Bush.
Just realised I've been lied to all my life. !!!!!!! F.

Didn't some bloke put himself in a box earlier this year and then posted himself from this country to Australia by airmail. He said it was the cheapest way to get there.
