Mailboxes from West Sacramento
Ugly Mailbox June 12th, 2008
Barbara S. from My West Sacracmento Photo of the Day sent in a picture featured on her blog last week.
These rows of mailboxes are fairly common in rural areas but what struck me about this picture is second redheaded stepchild of a mailbox. Not only is it completely rust covered, but it seems to have a “Hello My Name Is” sticker on it rather than vinyl numbers. It’s as if whoever owns it has said f’ keeping up with the Joneses.

This concrete disaster resides a few neighborhoods over from me. I guess L and E are their initials? I’ve heard of monogrammed towels and shirts, but mailboxes?
Speaking of disasters, I get Google Alerts for all things mailboxes, you know I wouldn’t want to miss out on anything… I’ve noticed a trend. There are only two types of mailboxes in the news, (with the exception of that one that got hit by a meteorite), the exploding ones and the ones that get hit by cars and win. Today’s mailbox would definitely fall into that category. Sadly, attempts to fortify mailboxes against vandals and bad drivers are resulting in death and injury. Something to think about before you brick up your mailbox, especially if you live on a busy road.

Another ugly mailbox from Kathy Frederick of the The Junk Drawer.

I’m not sure if this is as much ugly as it is lazy? Obviously, their regular mailbox is broken and they still want their mail protected behind a door. Why not throw another one in there? Maybe it’s ingenious…
I’m not sure ingenious is the word I’d use for it. It does remind me of the Russian nesting dolls though.

Sometimes you’ll see a mailbox that is rather old and battered and think, “when that was new, it was probably nice”.
This isn’t one of them.
