Worldwide viewpoint[edit]

The "globalize" tag removed because:

Note the first picture in article is postman of a Lisbon, Portugal -
Portugal postman
. Also added info about "trolleys" of the United Kingdom, which is the same thing as "satchel push carts" of the United States.--Doug Coldwell ^talk 19:35, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Worldwide view of Mail satchel removed since there is many examples shown of the same style Mail satchel from around the world. The idea of a "Mail satchel" (a type of mail bag that a letter carrier uses over-the-shoulder for assisting the delivery of personal mail on a designated route) is the same worldwide.--Doug Coldwell ^talk 14:51, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
