Telegraphic message
Another gem from the trusty LWA headmistress in Chicago.
I think the envelope was made of a topographic map. The green sparkly star stickers contrast nicely with the postman in the corner.
Incidentally, I am SO taken with this postman. He made me squee. It is a cutout, but did it come from a rubber stamp? I would love to know.
More vintage squee-able goodness: the first page was typed on an official "telegraphic message" form. CONFIDENTIAL!
I got a chuckle out of the "return letter overdue" classification. Official business, US Government, March 15, 1957. Love it!
