Imagine this love letter showing up in your mailbox. ?? Raymond Boudet, who was stationed in Hawaii with the Navy during World War II, sent a coconut to his wife in Massachusetts.
He wired the postage tag to it and carved the address and a heart into the fruit. The postage cost 37 cents.

Boudet’s wife Marie donated the coconut to our @nationalpostalmuseum in 1995.

And we're not trying to give you any ideas, but it is still legal to mail an unwrapped coconut. Coconut parcel post has endured as a novelty in the Hawaiian Islands, especially with tourists who send their "wish you were here" notes by coconut.
