What does your postbox look like?

Oh we have lots as we take part in #PostBoxSaturday on Twitter/X.
Will have a look at your instagram photos.

So hard to choose as I must have about 80 photos without hunting for them. This is a disused one on Oxford Road hence being painted black.
We have photos of gold ones, green ones (in Ireland) and a blue one.
My Dad was a postman and I must go and take photos of the boxes he collected from.

Tried the blue one instead

No, you need to wait until the upload is done, before you send the posting.

The mailbox on Zhongshan Square in Dalian

I posted 5 postcards off around the world yesterday in this postbox which is for Phillip Hindes from British cycling. Thought it would be nice to share although till they arrive it’s a secret. Shhhhh

I love that post office!

Is there still an unsmeared and unglued post box anywhere in Germany?

RalfH · March 27, 2024, 12:18pm

Yep, such still exist.

Eichendorff · March 27, 2024, 1:14pm

Hard to believe!

RalfH · March 27, 2024, 2:02pm

I’ll take a photo next time I see one and upload it here.

Easter themed knitted postbox topper in small village in NI.

RalfH · March 29, 2024, 1:44pm

Yes, these ones:

GrauBunt · March 31, 2024, 11:02am

Yes
But only residents live here. There is no through traffic.

Eichendorff · March 31, 2024, 11:31am

I can hardly believe it! Well, Frankfurt is also very special in Germany.

I found this interesting Victoria Regina post box in Stafford, Staffordshire.

RalfH · April 7, 2024, 7:04pm

Immaculate mailbox in Aachen.

Eichendorff · April 7, 2024, 7:18pm

I seem to live in a run-down city.

RalfH · April 7, 2024, 7:31pm

There are also enough awfully smeared Postboxes here in Aachen. I do neither like nor support that.

BeepBoop · April 12, 2024, 1:26pm

Not mine, but these are some of my favorite post boxes I’ve seen on trips to Japan:

At Ueno Zoo:

Next to Hakodate train station:

At Hikone castle:

I’ve had postcards professionally printed of these as well as a drawing I did of multiples if anyone wants to trade
