A Tax Day stunt that really made ’em sweat

The after-business-hours party at the mammoth post office on 32nd Street in New York City was in full swing at 8 p.m. last Friday, Tax Day. Eleventh-hour filers waited dozens deep at windows for their April 15 stamp and scratched out their forms with blotty, government-issue pens. Still others wrestled with big yellow books titled Taxes for Dummies. (Tip No. 1—Don’t wait until tax day!) And there to capitalize on the sweaty mess was Mitchum, which seemed to have hired actors to further lather up the crowd.
