Wow
I just got a letter addressed to "HARRY POTTER, 17 Summer Street, Kingston MA", return address "RON WEASLEY, The Burrow" and completely covered in stamps on both sides. Inside was a piece of paper asking if I'd like to spend the summer with Ron and his ridiculously large family.

Really, this really happened.

The real Ron Weasley would have sent it in the beak of some sort of bird. I strongly suspect that this is not from him at all.

P.S. Lick the letter and see it it's magic!

They are, in several cases. My crude philately skills recognize a few from at least the 50's (Pony Express, Amateur Radio). I suspect others are of the same vintage.

I am sorry to say this, because I think this concept is EPIC, but I don't believe this really happened. Why? There is no postmark. You know, the stamp that the US Postage Service uses that dates their letters as having been received on this day or another. So unless someone dropped it in your mailbox personally, this wasn't actually mailed.

So maybe I just missed the postmark when I looked at the pictures? Otherwise, I want an explanation lol!

I can't imagine how happy the person that sent it is to see that you posted a live journal entry about it.
