The Washington County Historical Society and the Slate Valley Museum invite the public to attend “An Exhibition on the Postal Service of Washington County” presented by Stephen Matte. This free program will take place at 2PM on July 27th at the Slate Valley Museum, 17 Water Street in Granville, NY.
Stephen has been an avid collector of postal memorabilia for over 30 years and his extensive collection contains items from about 66 local post offices (approximately 90% of all post offices that ever existed in Washington County) with many items from offices that no longer exist.
With the talk being held in Granville, Stephen will be bringing 40 extra Granville postal system items and in celebration of the 250th Anniversary of the United States of America he will also be bringing two items from the 1700s.
Stephen Matte and his wife live in South Glens Falls. They have 3 children and 10 grandchildren.
