- Transportation of the Mail depicts the many methods of moving mail, goods, and produce to and from the suburbs: in the left foreground, a young girl hands an envelope to a mail carrier; this pair is watched by a messenger on his bicycle; and to the right of him, two men load a box into a cart. In the middle ground, three men prepare large bags and boxes for shipment. On the right, a man drives a soon-to-be outmoded horse and cart, while on the left a sleek black locomotive puffing smoke into the blue sky moves across the background. Displayed high on the post attached to the letter box, even the street names—Export Place and Rail Street—reference the transport of goods.
