      I love it. Years ago I collected license plates. My buddy had a 1926 Essex and I had a 1926 license plate with his three initials on it. The car and plate went well together even though he put a 350 engine in it. I like the way your plate fits in.

      Pretty neat! This is the first cast iron door mailbox I've ever seen. Is that an insulator being used for the knob?
