I like Mr. ZIP. In the depths of the pandemic, I would sometimes draw his image on the envelopes of our outgoing mail, alongside “Thanks, USPS.”
I’ll borrow something I wrote in a post with a 1968 advertisement about ZIP codes and “snail mail”: “Mr. ZIP retired in 1986. He later died of a broken heart.”
