Thank you both for your contribution..

Victorian Style, Windsor England.

Can you imagine how excited I became on seeing a green one?

This one is situated immediately adjacent to the Guildhall in Windsor,  Green was adopted as the standard colour for the early Victorian post boxes.

Victoria: 1837-1901

This one is not in use.

Windsor, England

Not a great photo by any means, but this is when the fascination really started to set in while I was in the UK.

Saw this while riding around Windsor in the open air 

hop on hop off bus, so I raced to the other side of the bus to capture it, hence poor quality.

 Windsor was a real eye opener to me for the different styles of Pillar Boxes, I will show more over time.

I do have more Sydney ones to share, but be patient, in due time...


Victoria: Vertical Slot

This style was designed in 1856, 15 years after postage stamps. 
Due to people walking into the original colour of green the pillar box colour changed to red.
