SKU: POST-PRT Categories: ,

Description

The box bears the Royal Cypher George Rex (Latin meaning “King”).  Because there are no other numerals around the cypher, this postbox most likely was installed no later than 1936 when George V abdicated the throne for romance and was given the post of Governor of the Bahamas.
