SCRANTON, Pa.
(AP) -- A northeastern Pennsylvania newspaper has just received a
calendar to help ring in the new year - except the year is 1950.
Scranton's The Times-Tribune reports ( http://bit.ly/S23ykD ) a mail carrier delivered it 63 years late without explanation on Friday.
The
large tube contained a 1950 Pennsylvania Railroad calendar addressed to
James Flanagan, former general manager of The Scranton Times.
The calendar includes a holiday greeting from a railroad executive dated December 1949. Flanagan died that month.
A U.S. Postal Service spokesman says lost mail is sometimes found when a machine is dismantled or office space is renovated.
Times-Tribune
publisher Bobby Lynett says he'll see if the Steamtown National
Historic Site railroad museum is interested in the calendar. If not,
he'll display it in the newspaper's offices.
