A long time ago, the person who received the
letter had to pay for it. Often people did not
want to get the letter because they did not
want to pay for it. Postmen walked back with
their bags full of letters and with no money.
Later, the sender had to pay for the letter and
they used stamps as receipts.
Two hundred years ago people waited for
weeks for a letter from family or friends. In
1850, for example, people form San Francisco
had to wait for four to six weeks to get a letter
from New York. Today you can send a message
to a friend with a touch of a button by text,
email or phone call.​
