Summary
The subject of this Postal department documentary is "snatching" the mail bag from the suspended post by the railroad mail clerk. As the film begins, a man climbs the steps leading to the device that suspends the mail bag in the air. A train can be seen in the distance approaching the mail bag. At the end of the film, the mail bag is just being snatched from the suspension device. |
