VR Postboxes?

Postby crozboz » Jan 14th, '08, 01:30



OK, so a local band needed a logo designing, and they turned to their local computer whizz, yours truly.

The bands name is Vintage Rhythms - they play the Glenn Miller, Leroy Anderson that sort of stuff. They're very good.

And I thought about using one of the old postboxes with VR written accross the front in big yellow metal (you get it? Vintage Rhythms, VR, and its pretty old. Oh never mind)

One problem - In and around York, and on google images, as far as I can see, there are none. I managed to find a couple, but theyre pretty tiny. (the pictures, not the postboxes)

They tend to be the hexagonal ones, with a little bobble on the top.

I was wondering if anyone lives near enough to one to be able to take a photo of it (without looking like a total weirdo) and send it to me?

If anyone could do this, I would be incredibly greatful.

Thanks in advance, Tom

All the best,

Letter Box Study Group? Oh my god. That seems like something that would appear on Have I Got News For You. Guest publications. Thanks

Tenko,
Nope, No postboxes nearby with VR on,

EDIT: Just been on the LBSG website, and they had exactly what I was looking for. Thanks Mark! :D
