Description
A vintage U.S. Mail metal curbside mailbox featuring embossed lettering and an integrated red flag signal. Constructed from heavy-gauge steel, this piece exhibits significant surface oxidation, paint loss, and weathering consistent with age and outdoor use. The hinged door remains functional, showcasing a character-rich, distressed industrial aesthetic.
