Lea Loves Little Letters

In a world where the biggest and the best most often garner attention, along comes the World’s Smallest Post Office (WSPO). Actually, it’s not a Post Office — it’s a miniature desk that business owner Lea Redmond carries to cafes and shops in San Francisco and uses to produce really, really small letters for passers-by. Each letter is transcribed by WSPO in the tiniest of script, sealed with a miniscule wax seal with the sender’s initial pressed into it, packaged with a magnifying glass in a glassine envelope and finished off with a large wax seal. Each package containing the wee writings is addressed large enough for anyone to read.
