What does your postbox look like?

Thank you so much!!

I found another one cute mailbox today :camera_flash::postbox:

  • Sugamo (Tokyo):
    This mailbox features Sugamon, the mascot of the Sugamo neighborhood in Tokyo. The name “Sugamo” literally means “duck’s nest” and is believed to come from a large pond in the area where ducks used to nest.

If you remove the comma, it looks like a certain football club runs their own kingdom. :smile:

I’ve never heard of Royal Mail using the term “Postal Suite” or different slots for 1st and 2nd class before, very interesting.

I started Postcrossing this year. We had an ugly mailbox, but I never gave it a second thought. I had my husband put me up a new one and I decorated it for my new hobby. Those are magnets! I never knew those existed. You can change them out for holidays or seasons!

After National Heritage Day last May, here at Main Post Offfice in Santiago, Chile they put a historic postbox for outgoing mail :heart_eyes: Now I send all my postcards from that postbox, it’s so beautiful.
