Tennessee Post Offices

Spring City Tennessee Post Office

Spring City TN Post Office 37381

ADDRESS: 265 Front St., Spring  City, Tennessee 37381

Today’s featured post office is from Spring City. I was kind of in a hurry so I just have the two photographs. The post office is in the same building as a bank. Just thought I’d mention that.

Thanks,

David W. Gates Jr.

Mount Pleasant Tennessee Post Office

June 30, 2013 By David W. Gates Jr.

Mount Pleasant TN Post Office 38474
Mount Pleasant TN Post Office 38474

ADDRESS: 201 N. Main St., Mount Pleasant, Tennessee, 38474
ARTIST: Eugene Higgins
TITLE: Early Settlers Entering Mount Pleasant
MEDIUM: Oil on canvas (mural)
STATUS: The Mount Pleasant post office is still an active, operating facility, and the mural can be viewed by interested members of the public. It resides in the lobby on the wall above the postmaster’s door.
YEAR: 1942

WOW! check out post office and mural. I couldn’t help myself I ended up spending some extra time here admiring the mural and taking lots of pictures. I took several close up detailed photographs so you could really get the feel of this great mural. And now that I’m looking at my these pictures I’m wondering why I didn’t get a close up of that wonderful eagle above the front entrance. “Kicking myself” oh well. may someone out there might like to send me one. 🙂

So we’re just going to dive in July, normally I only like to showcase one mural or artwork per week. But hey I have a lot of material to share. Plus I wanted to dive right into my Tennessee collection. So on this very last day of June let’s get started with those unique and wonderful buildings in Tennessee.

Thanks,

David W. Gates Jr.

Elgin Tennessee Post Office

Elgin TN Post Office 37732

ADDRESS: 179 Rugby Hwy., Elgin, Tennessee 37732

This was an interesting stop. Every now and then timing is everything. I happen to pull up right as the UPS truck was delivering to the Elgin post office. Funny how that happens. United Parcel Service, servicing the United States Postal Service.

While I was in Elgin, I also stopped at the local gas mini-mart station right in town. Turns out this also happens to be a USPS Authorized Provider. How about that for a featured post office of the day. Two for the price of one?

Thanks,

David W. Gates Jr.
