Does anyone else look at the date and think there is literally no way this man is still alive. He probably died before the internet. But maybe..if the glasses make him look older and he was only 20…hed be 114. I dont think he’s alive. On the other hand maybe he is 29 in this picture and he died at age 90, in 1990.
I do think he got hit with a snowball right before this picture was taken

Fred Astaire in Santa Claus Is Comin’ to Town
The happiness is what stands out to me
Kind of Norman Rockwell.
He reminds me of the stereotypical shopper with the long baguette sticking out of the bag.
You’ll shoot your eye out…
I remember our mailman humping that sack year round in the 70’s. Man he must of been in shape.
Harold LLoyd was a busy guy!
Great photo!
That looks like a Normans Rockwell painting
the black and white is better

Speedy deliveries!
LOVE IT!
I got the sudden urge to put this on my fridge.
I want those fucking bags.
That’s the most whimsical mailman I’ve ever seen.

That’s a weird name….Mailman
He reminds me of that one actor from NCIS who was the assistant to the ME/Dr.
This looks straight out of an animated christmas movie, his pose, facial expression, the comical account of packages / presents. Great pic!
When i was your age i had to carry packages in the freezing snow, on foot. *And we liked it!*
Nowadays that poor bastard would be robbed blind the moment he stepped out of the postal building.
So that’s what Baldrick did after the war
It’s his first day on the job, the weariness hasn’t set in yet.
I bet there aren’t any smiling mailmen in chicago anymore
Looks like a Norman Rockwell painting.
