I've seen lots of unusual mailboxes over here in Florida, so thought that would be a good subject to start a new thread with. Anyone can join in with their pics. At the moment, I just have this one seen down the road from here. However, when we next drive down Longboat Key, I'll be able to get quite a few.

No, not really, but some people have started buying American mailboxes and putting them up for use. The kids have one. Personally, I prefer my mail to come straight into the house.
Last year I saw an article in a small booklet put out by the British Post Office and showing several British mailboxes. Think they were mainly older models, but if I remember correctly, some are still in use in quaint holiday or out-of-the-way place. It would be nice if someone over there came across one and took some pics for the rest of us.
Likewise, any found on holiday overseas.

We'll be going through Longboat Key this afternoon when we take the rental car back and get another, so I'll be able to take those promised photos. Shall put some up this evening.
