This exquisite vintage mahogany post box and stamp vending machine is in remarkable antique condition. The top features several advertisements for local businesses, including:
– Kenneth Milton: ”LOCHGILPHEAD”S LEADING FASHION AND SPORTS OUTFITTER”
– Bruce Robertson: ”CONTRA DANCE RECORDS”
– A.G. Campbell: ”FISHMONGER”
– Hugh Ferguson: ”BUTCHER”
– Alexander MacBrayne: ”Draper and Clothier” located at ”Argyll Street – LOCHGILPHEAD” with the phone number ”282.”
The middle section boasts two doors with ornate vintage labels reading ”POSTAGE” and ”STAMPS” positioned above the stamp dispenser, which is marked ”NOT IN USE.” The mechanics, accessible from both the front and the back, move freely, but it is unclear if they are in working order. The base features a door that opens to a metal post box designed to tilt forward for easy letter retrieval. This remarkable piece has a beautiful colour and patina, with a classic design that stirs a sense of nostalgia and historical significance.
