Post Office News

This Is Your Book Mark



The Post Office News Company of Chicago sold newspapers and periodicals and books from out of town and from all over the world.  In 1897, they were located at 217 Dearborn Street.  In 1904, they were located at 178 Dearborn Street.  They eventually had six locations.  By 1956, their headquarters were at 37 West Monroe Street.  When that location was demolished some time in the 1970s to make room for a new office building, Messrs.  Franklin and Dry closed the business.  This "Friday" bookmark notes their past presence.
