Mistigram: Why has AdeptApril drawn a #PostageStamp in #ANSIart? Is it national philately day? Not quite: “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds” isn’t just paraphrased in Laurie Anderson’s “O Superman”, this phrase (derived from Herodotus describing the courier service of the Persian Empire under Xerxes I) is carved into New York City’s James A. Farley Post Office, which opened in 1914 on this day.
