Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Victorian post box. For context see 1248401.
This is an example of the what was designed as a "lamp box", i.e. for fitting to a post (e.g. see 878084), although most examples seem to have ended up wall mounted such as here. This is an example of the second version of the lamp box, dating from the late 1890s - the first version had the words "letters" rather than "letters only". Even so it is atypical - note the bolted on slot cover. |
