EDITORS COMMENTS
Celebrating Four Decades of Connecting People: A Postal and Telegraph Jubilee in Prague, Czechoslovakia (1887-1927) This photograph captures a jubilee card commemorating the 40th anniversary of the inception of the Prague postal and telegraph service. The card, adorned with an image of a horse-drawn mail coach and a biplane, symbolizes the evolution of communication from the land to the skies. In the late 19th century, the establishment of a reliable postal and telegraph service in Prague revolutionized the way people connected with each other, both locally and internationally. This card serves as a testament to the significant milestone reached by the service, which began in 1887 and expanded to include air travel by 1927. The horse-drawn mail coach, a common sight on the streets of Prague during the early days of the postal service, represents the traditional means of transporting mail. The coach, pulled by a team of powerful horses, was an essential component of the postal network, ensuring the timely delivery of letters and parcels. The biplane in the background of the card symbolizes the advent of a new era in communication. The introduction of air travel allowed messages to be delivered faster and more efficiently than ever before, bridging greater distances and bringing people closer together. This historical jubilee card is a fascinating reminder of the rich history of communication in Prague and the significant role the postal and telegraph service played in connecting people during a time when travel was more challenging. The image of the horse-drawn mail coach and the biplane together encapsulates the spirit of innovation and progress that characterized the early 20th century.
