The detailed engraving allows us to see every aspect of the operation, from the uniformed military officers overseeing the loading process to the hardworking individuals carefully stacking parcels into the waiting vans. Each timber on the horse-drawn van is meticulously depicted, highlighting the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into these essential modes of transportation.
As we gaze upon this historical print, we are reminded of a time when communication relied on physical delivery rather than instant digital connections.
