About Us

Historic Mail was started by a group of history enthusiasts who loved the idea of getting a letters from historic figures every week - almost as if directly from Benjamin Franklin's or Thomas Edison's desk straight to yours. And so we created it! Historic letters, as primary sources have a way of changing how we see the past - rich with context, full of surprising, human details both grand and wonderfully mundane. Experiencing them in your own mailbox makes history feel alive again.

Each letter is carefully curated to take you on a meaningful journey - thoughtful selections that connect moments, voices, and eras. Whether you’re treating yourself or someone special, we hope these weekly envelopes become a small ritual you look forward to; something to open, savor, and keep.
