The United States Post Office-Baxley, Georgia on Tippins Street in Baxley in Appling County, Georgia is a Colonial Revival-style post office built in 1935–1936. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.[1] It is a small one-story post office which is "similar in size, scale, materials, and architectural style to many of the other approximately sixty-five post offices built in Georgia" during the 1930s. It is one of the "vast majority of post offices built in Georgia during this period [which] were designed in the Colonial Revival style."[2] It is now used for the magistrate court.
