Mr.Zip (MRZIP)

From Postal Legend to Onchain Icon

In 1963, the United States Postal Service introduced the ZIP code system to modernize mail delivery. But this campaign wasn’t just about logistics — it had a face. That face was Mr. Zip, a cartoon mail carrier created to personify speed, reliability, and nationwide service. What most people don’t know is that Mr. Zip’s origins trace back to Chase Manhattan Bank, a predecessor of JPMorgan Chase.

Designed by artist Howard Wilcox for the advertising firm Cunningham and Walsh, Mr. Zip first appeared in campaigns promoting mail-based banking with the slogan: “In rain or hail, bank by mail.” When the campaign ended, the character was adopted and modified by the U.S. Post Office, quickly becoming a national symbol. Within just four years, over 80% of Americans recognized Mr. Zip.

Now, in a bold leap from envelopes to Base, Mr. Zip is back — this time on the Base blockchain.

$MRZIP reimagines this legendary American icon as a modern meme coin. With one foot in the nostalgic past and the other in the degen future, MrZip delivers speed, community, and cultural relevance to a new generation of digital pioneers.
