About

This free Smithsonian is way more fun than a museum about mail sounds. Climb aboard a real railway mail car, see planes and vehicles once used to deliver the mail, design your own stamp and try your hand at sorting letters. You can also see the famous upside-down Inverted Jenny stamps and Owney, the taxidermied dog who traveled the country with railway mail clerks.
