My father gave me this stand of mailboxes. I am going to use them in my craft room for display/storage.
Chicago, USA
(The U.S. Postal Services came out with special edition Star Wars stamps
in 2007...appropriately some boxes were outfitted as R2-D2.)
The owner wanted to know what I was doing. He had a rifle in one hand, a shot gun in the other. I told him I had a friend about a quarter mile away. Then he calmed down.
“Mail Safe”, the newest and
most innovative mailbox ever built.
This unit was designed and built by former letter carriers
with the latest customer security issues in mind. In a day of continuous mail theft from mailboxes, security is the utmost importance. We are introducing a new concept, the Mail Safe mailbox, which will allow customers the security and peace
of mind by being able to leave home without worrying over
the theft of incoming mail, end of month checks, critical medication or identity theft.
Customers may be able to leave on short vacations or
holidays without having to notify the Postal Service. This is
due to the large capacity of the locked holding bin beyond
the reach of potential drive-by mail thefts and vandals. The
Mail Safe mailbox can keep your mail dry and
It is constructed of high impact composite plastic
available in 6 granite colors with UV protection to prevent fading. This patent pending, two-piece design is very rugged and durable. It is resistant to impact from ball bats but will break away if struck by a motor vehicle.
At the low price of $219.99 (plus tax) and $35 shipping
and handling. The Mail Safe mailbox will provide you with years of mail security to ease your mind. It can also be an
asset to any home by providing a great first impression and enhancing curb appeal.
Tried some selective coloring with this shot. The yellow on the mailbox really stands out from the B&W and I really love how it pops.

The famous postsecrets.com mailbox. I had the weirdest sensation of being watched, and felt a little weird about being so excited to go see a mailbox
Seeing this reminded me of the mailbox at the corner drugstore. This one was made in PA. Think of all the stories and tales that have passed through that box.
Taken with the Nikon FM with a 50mm series E lens. This was an accidental underexposure. I loaded up the camera with Ilford FP4 but shot it at ASA 400. Two stops under. Ooops.
My first attempt at push processing, I developed it in Xtol for 16min at 68F. Grain was okay, but the contrast was excessive.
