An animated colour film in which the artist has free rein to show how he thinks letters got from one place to another in the early days of Canadian transportation. The film's colour, style and sparkle make this view of the subject a lively one for most people, and there are some facts of postal history for those who are interested.
A Tale of Mail (1966) is currently not available on any services.
