Caption: Bill was, without question, the alpha mail.
Letter with pink stamp: Oh, William, you're so s. a. s. e.
Letter facing away: I got the same stamp as you! Cool, huh?
Letter with red stamp: William, can I be delivered to your house?
The envelope copy was written going to Gettysburg, not going to Washington. He also wrote three other copies on regular paper, one of which is preserved in the Lincoln Bedroom in the White House.
And like most alpha mails, Bill could only throw around his bulk when he wasn’t properly addressed. Because as any intelligent, thrifty mail knows, email is far superior.
