Mailbox archive: 4558 East 28th Street



Mounted on a tilted blue pole, one side of this mailbox has a scene that reminds me a bit of Taos Pueblo in New Mexico.

The other side is much less fun:


This is one of the mailboxes I found on June 3, 2013, but didn't publish until today.

Bet you can't miss the house number as you drive by this mailbox:


(The other side has the typical small paste-on numbers.) I found it on June 3, 2013, but didn't publish the photo until today.

After groaning for a moment (I've seen enough smiley faces for a lifetime :), I stopped and snapped the photo on June 3, 2013. I haven't published it until today.

Here's a mailbox that looks to me as if it's by the same artist who painted the box across the street (see Mailbox archive: 4917 East Andrew Street):


It's another in the series of mailboxes that I snapped seven years ago (this one on June 3, 2013) but haven't published until now. The mailbox is signed SKay.

The mailbox door was open when I rolled by on June 3, 2013:


Across the street is another mailbox in the same style. We'll see it next time.
