About this deal

Shortly after the formation of the Freestate and the Department of Posts and Telegrams, postal workers began grinding the seal of Britain’s Victoria, George and Edward off postboxes although they left several hundred intact. In 2012 UK post boxes mostly in the hometowns of Team GB gold medal winners in the 2012 Summer Olympics were painted gold. An Post” means An Post having its registered office at GPO, O’Connell Street Lower, Dublin 1, D01 F5P2;

Since 2005, most Royal Mail post boxes have had the time of only the last collection of the day shown on the box, with no indication of whether the box is cleared at other times earlier in the day. Royal Mail say they needed to increase the type size of the wording on the plate to help those with poor sight, and so there was not enough room to list all collection times throughout the day. Some post boxes may indicate the next collection time by a metal 'tab' [24] or dial that can be changed while the box is open. The tab displays a day or number, each number corresponding to a different time shown on the plate. From surviving explosions to preventing them, the postal system on this island has had to face the challenge of keeping the world going as normal at the height of the Troubles. A stylish and sentimental idea for an event or wedding! The post box is perfect for your guests to post notes, cards, and gifts on your special day. The realistic Royal Mail collection times card can easily be removed and replaced with a personalized note or instructions.

Novelist and postal official Anthony Trollope, who lived for a time in Donnybrook, is credited with introducing post boxes to Ireland in the mid-19th century. The penny post had been such a success that postage volumes were on the increase and having to go into the post office simply to post a letter was becoming impractical.
