Island Cabin Resort Galvanized Tin Postal Bin, Boating Mail Box

Used vintage and very cool piece that was found in estate from a border town in Northern Minnesota. This was used to house the mail for island residents where resorts and home owners lived.
The postal worker would leave the mail in this well built galvanized tin bin for pick up by boat. Because it is so deep, surely they used a grabber of sorts. Dating to approx. 1940s.

Approx. measurements; 21" across at widest point, 6.5" deep, 26" tall.

Add tall Cat tail plants in it, dried flowers, patriotic American flags, store things in your kitchen, garage, etc. A crafty artist could paint something equally cool on this and it could be a welcome to guest.

This has three open holes on the top edge of the back for hanging. Lift top lid in the center with handle. Please enlarge photos as they are a major part of the description. Feel free to mail with any questions prior to purchase.

Thanks for visiting.
