There seems to be a developing pattern in my mail delivery; I am not getting lower class mail, especially from overseas.

I did not get my copy of the AP from the APS this month. I am two issues behind now getting Gibbons Stamp Monthly. I belong to a specialist society in the UK and have not received the last two issues of their publication.

Is anyone else noticing this?

I don't subscribe to anything but I do have several letters coming from Europe that are way over due, seems to be a common malady now-a-days.

I've received all of my AP magazines here in Indianapolis from APS in a timely manner this year.

re: Periodicals Not Getting Through

I have not received my May 2020 American Philatelist, and the shop has not received the 4 May 2020 Linn's Stamp News. We did receive the 11 MAY 2020 and 18 May 2020 Linn's Stamp News.

The only thing I know is that in this time of covid 19, and lock-downs everywhere a lot of people order almost anything via the internet and all those packages are delivered by post.

The deliverers can hardly handle all that work.
Maybe is that one of the reasons.

My Topical Time also showed yesterday! I would suspect delivery issues are regional.

re: Periodicals Not Getting Through

My brother in law works at a sorting center in NJ. He has been out on 14 day watch twice as people near him tested positive. One person he knew died. He said with everything going on they are working at half staff and aren’t getting to the 4th class mail.
