Literature about mail, post, postman, etc.

[Szabó Zelmira]

This book came to me, with the content written on stamps (Shaun Tan: Takes from Outer Suburbia).

Do you know (illustrated) (children) books about: 

mail

post

postman

stamps

etc.

?

No matter the language is.

Thank you!

In meantime I remembered this book about messages in bottles:

The Uncorker of Ocean Bottles by Michelle Cuevas, illustration by Erin E. Stead

When I was a child, there was a Russian cartoon that all children watched on TV; one of the main characters was a postman called Pechkin.

Pechkin.

Thank you!

I like very much a lot of Russian cartoons (like Yuri Norstein, but others also), but I still didn” see this cartoon.

I can”t wait to see it.

Glad to hear from you! Pechkin appears in a long line of cartoons about the inhabitants of the village of Prostokvashino. The very first is a 1975 cartoon entitled "ДЯДЯ ФЕДОР, ПЕС И КОТ". In Russian you can look it up:
