A new holiday TV commercial from the Postal Service offers a nod to the organization’s 250th anniversary this year.
The 30-second ad, titled “Delivering Since 1775,” juxtaposes images of contemporary mail carriers with black-and-white archival footage of their counterparts from previous eras.
“Two hundred fifty years ago, a promise was made to connect families and friends, near and far,” a narrator says. “How we delivered has changed, but our purpose hasn’t — especially during the holidays. It’s the peace of mind knowing that your love arrives.”
The new commercial, which began airing Nov. 3, is part of a campaign that also includes mailpieces and print ads.
