    Description

    Cast Iron reproduction victorian style black (on front) mailbox
    PLEASE NOTE:  This is cast after the old-style mailboxes that used to hang on the old colonial-style homes.  The mail people used to receive wasn't NEARLY as big as the mail we get today.  This will NOT work well as a working mailbox.  The bigger sized envelopes, magazines, and simple VOLUME of mail sent today.  It just won't fit into it.
    Most of the people who buy these from us are using them as decorative pieces on their colonial style homes.  Some use them as "message" or "suggestion" boxes.  Any number of possible uses.
    It has TWO flaps that open and close (see the pictures below)
    The ENTIRE piece top to bottom measures 11 3/4" Tall & 6 1/2" wide.  The interior (top to bottom) is 8" tall.  The interior when you open the big flap and measure from the front opening to the bottom is approx. 6".  The interior width of the box is 4 1/2".  The interior depth front to back is 1 7/8".  NICE HEAVY piece at right at SIX POUNDS.  Built in mounting holes to the top and bottom.
    The front (all parts that will show when hung) has been painted black.
    Overseas buyers just message me and I'll quote you overseas shipping.  THEN if you want it, just let me know and I'll adjust the listing so you can easily get it.
