Description

Post Office, Pascagoula, Mississippi. No. 102. No. 14508N. Built in 1937. The building was located at the corner of Delmas Avenue and Poascagoula Street. There was a mural inside the building named the Legend of the Singing River. The building was used as a Post Office until 1965 when a new post office was built. This then became the Public Library.

Postmarked Jun 7, 1951 with a one cent stamp. Message on back: Dear Mrs. Appleby, We are on our way to the Southern Baptist Convention in California. Will try to send you some more cards if we can find any with Post offices on them. Sincerely, Mrs. R. Grady Snowden. To Mrs. Belle Appleby. 564 Adams St. Sarasota, Florida. June 14, 1951.
