I have a confession,
If I didn't have so many  unfinished projects, and cobwebs and dust balls in the cool stuff fund, I'd  seriously  consider making a run on the mailbox.  I remember that style on  almost corner  as a kid,  redone, with the lettering red on a white background, maybe the the Mr Zip logo,  it would look cool in the game room  a few feet of the Gas pump. Maybe as a liquor cabinet..

There was also a wall mount unit, I had a plastic wall hanging  of one as a kid, that would be just as cool.

I think thats pretty cool also.. If I had the space (and the money).........................

I have a mailbox.... A more modern one (1962)
powder coated in DP Green...
Don't suppose there are many US Mailboxes in UK...
Even has collection detaills etc...

They still have this style of mailbox in Chicago.  Next to them, usually, is a green mailbox for storing their cart.  The green one is the one you want for a cooler.  It has the same shape, but it has a front door that opens from top to bottom.  The blue mail box only opens from the bottom.  Unless you want to use the bottom as a cooler and the top swinging door as a serving tray.

I just thought it was funny when the guy said to use your imagination on a beer cooler.  I figured I'd use a little more imagination and make into a Jacobs.

Yes, I did see his torture chamber.  But I'd rather have the iron maiden.

Those are cool old mail box's but  I think he is a little on the high side
there was one at the over priced antique mall  (just down the road from my office)            for $250 and it was just as nice with a old lock on in all polish up and it looked good.
