This image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 19 December 1962, "Twenty-five extra staff are at present helping the terrific flow of Christmas mail in the mail-room of the Palmerston North Post Office. There are six extra sorters and 19 boys are helping postmen with the second class mail. The photograph shows the scene in the mailroom yesterday morning."
