Philosateleian Post’s 2023 year in review sees new records set

Philosateleian Post in 2023 set new records for the amount of mail carried in a calendar year and on a single day.

The private local post based in Floresville, Texas, carried 525 pieces of outbound mail and processed nearly 25 additional items misdelivered by the United States Postal Service or sent to unknown addressees for an overall total of 547 pieces of mail. That represented a nearly 10% increase in outbound mail volume over the previous year and broke Philosateleian Post’s single-year records of 524 pieces of outbound mail and 535 total pieces of mail set in 2021.

In addition, Philosateleian Post set a new single-day record by carrying 53 pieces of outbound mail on January 30, 2023. That was World Local Post Day and the first day of issue for Philosateleian Post’s Western Cattle Not in Storm stamp.

Finally, the 64 postcards carried by Philosateleian Post in 2023 represented an increase of more than 50% over the previous record of 42 set in 2022.
