Last time I posted the blog’s newest stamp to date, a MacKenzie 2022 stamp from the southwest corner of East Kalamazoo Street and Mifflin Avenue. Today I am posting the fastest stamp removal I have ever seen. Last night I walked past to discover that the brand-new slab bearing the remarkably short-lived MacKenzie stamp had inexplicably been removed.

Why would they put in new sidewalk during a construction project that hadn’t finished yet, only to tear it right back out? I have no solution for this mystery.
