Photo: Post Office in Ghost Town Remains Open for Postmark
Bridal Veil, Oregon is a virtual ghost town. As of July 2006, all that remained of the town was a post office, a cemetery and a church. One reason Bridal Veil still exists is its highly sought after postmark. Letters that come through Bridal Veil have their stamps cancelled with a Bridal Veil postmark. Thus, thousands of brides bring their wedding invitations through Bridal Veil for that coveted postmark. During the spring and summer, the height of wedding season, the post office is filled with thousands of wedding invitations awaiting that special postmark. The wedding business and ardent support from locals every time the federal government threatens shut down of the Bridal Veil post office has helped keep the town going long after the logging industry left the town.” (source: Photo- Flickr, Info-Wikipedia)
