Radio City Music hall.........NYC..........my father is a polymath.......behind a lot of stories in Hollywood and plays on Broadway......setting up the stage, etc...............my maternal grandfather took me and Dave to NYC when we were kids..........b/c the USPS offered him a bigger job than the assistant director of philately...................I asked him as an older kid.......why he didn't take it.......he told me that the office the Post Office was going to give him had no windows to it........and after 30 years of service it was time to retire.............he told me it was him who standardized the 5 by 7 envelopes.........and other stuff.........I wonder if Paul Chamberlain gave him the idea.............
He also told me he held 26 billion dollars one day............52 $500 million dollar bills.................the 500 million dollar bill was the highest the US treasury ever printed...............it was some promo with the Post office or something........or some meeting he got to go to.........he even worked in what was the Old Post Office Pavillion.........they made a food court out of it........Trump Hotel now......
