Sam's Mailbox Pictures

http://sblom.com/mailbox/

Today's site offers one man's take on the visual allure of the
commonplace turned into artistic, or just plain humorous,
expression. Readers will find outlandish, remarkable and even
futuristic examples
of that utilitarian object, the curbside mailbox.

"I have always been intrigued by the ability of a craftsman to
take a boring mailbox and make it into a thing of interest,
adventure or beauty--Or simply mount it in a way to catch my
eye-- I know that we all see them every day but some are really
neat ..." - from the website

The site presents Sam Blomberg's collection of unusual mailboxes.
Arranged in no particular order, the page displays its engaging
assembly of mailboxes, from bucolic cows to desert cacti. Each
image is clickable for enlargement for a full appreciation of the
artistic statement made by these creations. Discover the delights
of the "Hammer", the whimsy of the "Blue Fish" or the ones
possibly designed by "George Jetson".
