Some More 1960s Post Office Pictures

This installment of my blog is hastily done so that I can make my personal goal of having a new blog post at least once every week.  Here are some black and white photographs of post office in the 1960s.

I've also illustrated a cancellation from the post office.


Hancock (Addison County)
The woman is probably Hazel R. Cole who was postmaster from 1943 to 1968.





West Rupert (Bennington County)
 


Montgomery (Franklin County)

The woman is probably Gertrude Marston who was postmaster from 1942 to 1972.  I wonder if she lived in the attached trailer since the walkway leads from the post office to the trailer.


Montgomery Center (Franklin County)

The man is probably John Kennett who was postmaster from 1948 to 1972.

    Hello Glenn, I just learned that my home in East Rupert was a post office from 1827-1904. Do you have any materials / images related to this location? Long shot I realize, but worth an ask. Thanks for preserving this history!
