This raw footage from 1991 shows people waiting in line at the United States Post Office located in San Francisco’s Rincon Center.

Begins with a wide exterior shot of the post office. A Mercedes is parked out front. A woman in blue is about to cross the street. A window of the post office reads “RINCON CENTER STATION.”

Inside the post office, people stand in line, waiting to be helped by postal employees. People line up against a counter, which some lean on.

A plastic-like box labelled “PROPERTY OF U.S. POSTAL SERVICE”  sits on a counter next to a duffle bag. Both the box and bag are probably filled with mail.

From a different angle, we see that most of the customers in line are leaning against the counter. One black man is reading a newspaper. Another black man is reading a book. The camera focuses on their legs and shoes.

A sign reads “EVERY CUSTOMER COUNTS...EVERY SINGLE ONE.”

A man wearing a white floppy bucket hat and camouflage pants looks through the slot of a dropbox. He looks suspicious. He walks away once he notices he’s being watched.

Postal workers shoo the camera person away, telling the camera person that they’re really busy.

A bald man wearing a white dress shirt and black tie stands at the counter of a postal employee for assistance.

The remainder of the clip focuses on people standing in line, people picking up mail from PO boxes, and people walking through the spacious Rincon Center facility.
