In 1903 American Mutoscope & Biograph made a seemingly endless series of films about the United states Postal Service, its many guises, duties and working practices. I mention this, as I have on many of the other comments I have written for these films because very often there isn't much happening on the screen and I need to write at least 10 lines before IMDb will accept my review. This film is a good example of that 'nothing happening here,' theme. We see a man sporting a derby hat and walrus moustache hang a mail sack on one of those poles that stand beside a railway track followed by a second shot of the sack being snatched up by a passing train which also jettisons another sack onto the ground as it passes. (Eleven lines - I've surpassed myself...)
