Bray was a serious collector. Postal stationary and autograph still have a great success today. It's always interesting how someone obtain an autograph from a celebrity. |

 That's great Bobby! In the article, there is a reference to "idiot-proofing" When I used to teach computer programming, I always told my students that no matter how much time you spend idiot-proofing a system, someone will build a better idiot.  KirkS |

Great post Moonbird. Peaches, balloons, lego, money this guy will mail anything http://www.postalnauts.com/Note: navigating can be tricky if you click on "Fruit" then at top "more fruit" you eventually come to where he mailed a coconut |
