CITY DISPATCH POST OFFICE |
United States Local Post: New Orleans La., (5c) "According to Huber's
The Great Mail, the New Orleans "City Dispatch Post Office", as it
was named, advertised in the Daily Picayune in 1847. The post was owned by
J. Murray at 108 St. Charles Street at the corner of Poydras. It advertised
four collections a day -- at 10 a.m., 12 noon, 3 and 5 p.m. -- and had 23
letter-drop boxes located throughout the city. Stamps were sold for 5c
each, or 30 for a dollar. Prepayment was mandatory on letters to be
delivered to the post office and optional on city-delivery letters. Unlike
local-post operators in other cities, Murray enjoyed a cooperative
relationship with the post office, evidenced by his notice that a box was
located in the Post Office building and letters from the mails to
correspondents in the city would be picked up and delivered by Murray's
carriers. Given the peculiar politics of the city at the time, one wonders
if the relatively higher letter rate of 5c included a small gratuity for
the New Orleans postmaster." [Siegel auction 973 lot 287 via SAN] |
