Description:
furnishes postage and mailing service, day and night, to people who have letters to mail... and no stamps. It is a coin-operated U.S. mail box and postage meter. To mail a letter you (1) drop coins in a slot (2) dial your postage value (3) insert your letter.. and away it goes, stamped, postmarked and automatically deposited for collection. No adhesive stamps... no stamp-licking... no premium for postage. This self-service post office prints U.S. meter stamps in denominations up to 32c on letters of various kinds and sizes, including Air Mail, Special Delivery and foreign mail. It can handle as many as 72 letters a minute. The Mailomat was developed by Pitney-Bowes Postage Meter Co., Stamford, Conn., in cooperation with the U.S. Post Office Department, to provide the public with stamp-buying and mailing facilities at times and places where they are not now available... in post office lobbies, hotels, stores, railway terminals and other public places
