Here is what I think happened here. Someone dropped a letter containing his “proposal” into a USPS blue mailbox on 30th Avenue in Astoria. After doing so he realized he put the wrong address on the envelope. Instead of, I don’t know, writing the proposal again and sending it to the proper address he instead implored “MR. MAILMAN” to “PLEASE CHANGE ADDRESS ON ONE ENVELOPE”. A superhero USPS worker might rise to the occasion, but did they? One way to find out would be to write a letter to the correct address seen in this hand-written plea, asking if anyone there received a letter from John C., whose last name I cannot quite make out. The obvious question is about the nature of the proposal. Marriage? Business? Something transcendental? No way to know from this.
