A quick search of whitepages.com and I found four Fred Yosts in Pennsylvania. One of them might be him, or know of him. I wonder how hard they actually searched the internet for the guy.

He's got a real puzzle on his hands. Good luck to him.

From the article: “Sometimes pieces of mail do get lost behind equipment or transporting equipment. ... It is infrequent, but every once in a blue moon, it does happen,” Kelley said. “No matter how old it is, we will deliver it.”

I can see it now... Stuck behind some machine for 53 years, along with dust bunnies the size of horses. Don't those guys ever clean up around stuff? Or worse yet, what piece of equpiment at the post office is still in service after 53 years?

Did they deliver it "postage due"?

Haha! This is exactly what I was thinking!

No, because it was stamped and postmarked in 1954. Delivery was already paid for.

<sarcasm> This reminds me of the time my 12 years old, cocaine using daughter fell behind the fridge and we didnt find her until 54 years later...


........I cant believe that fridge works so long..gotta love kenmore...ahh memories</sarcasm>
