This mailbox is in the Geula neighborhood of Jerusalem. If you look closely, you can see the piece of white metal that prevents anyone from using the mailbox anymore.
Noticed the mailbox out in front of the Clampett house was in about the same condition. With all the rust and multiple layers of names and paint, it was quite beautiful In the late evening sun.
I took this with the intention of turning into black and white. It turned out better than I had hoped it would.
Ok it's a classic...now I should travel the world, take pictures like this, and produce a silly poster titled "Mailbox of the world". That would make me rich!
Lonely Mailbox
Poor lonely mailbox is so sad these days,
Sad mailbox cries for messages of love that never come.
The night waits. It's heart is so empty.
Standing, wanting in the sun, rain, snow 'til the Sun falls to the ground.
Its dull rusting beauty is a thing of the past,
Wondering where has all the gifts gone?
Crying is all I do,
Where has all the shiny paper gone?
I stood as flowers come and go.
Afraid cars would knock me over.
Fighting off squirrels from making me their home.
I cry for messages of love that never come.
Is it time for me to go? I am so old.

I wanted to work on adjusting my apeture and shutter speed accordingly for light conditions, so I photographed in areas that had little, if any light at all. In this case, the lighting was harsh and flourescent. Not only is the mailbox open, but so is the shutter (for 1/4 sec!). Surprisingly, the image did not show too much camera shake, although the focus got a little bit skewed.
Strange how this mailbox still sits in relatively healthy fashion in front of the crumbling house--even though it clearly has not bee occupied in decades. Curious, I checked and found it empty of mail. Don't tell the fed on me! Near Low Gap, Arkansas
This is the completed mailbox that I have been working on. It is a 6x6 cedar post, of which I ripped and custom cut the support arms out of the remaining 6x6 lumber. The horizontal support arm is inserted into a hand-chiseled mortise int the post for strength. All surfaces were sanded smooth to a furniture grade finish (call me meticulous). I then applied a coat of stain, sanded again, 1 coat of exterior paint, sanded again, and then applied the final coat of paint. I located the larger vinyl cut numbers for my address marking. My wife and I had installed the perennials a few weeks ago as I began working on the box.
