Letters Only
I found it beneath the shadow of the Heathrow flightpath. This wonderful example of mid 20th century officialdom. Attached to this stump of a telegraph pole and badly painted by a careless workman who didn't cvare that his post office red paint went everywhere, I love the curve of the top and the instruction - Letters only - It's such a formal instruction on such a quaintly modest pillarbox.
