How the mail is marking the nation’s 250th

The Postal Service recently issued a national postmark cancellation to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary.

The postmark is being applied in all processing plants to mail processed on automated canceling machines through August 31.

The cancellation features the text “Freedom 250” encircled by 13 stars.

Last year, USPS issued a special national postmark featuring the Eagle in Flight image to commemorate the Postal Service’s 250th anniversary.
