UKAA recently sold a beautiful totally Original Victorian Pillar Box; This is a very rare pillar box to find!
This pillar box was fully restored here in our workshops at UKAA where we had it specially sandblasted, red oxide primer coated and painted in 2 coats of Red Gloss.
Complete with original enamel plaques, mail shoot and working Chubb lock with key this VR Pillar Box was made by A.Handyside & Co Ltd, Derby and London.
We had this shipped to Bangkok, Thailand where it now takes pride of place outside of a very happy customer's home and we think it looks phenomenal!

He purchased this along with an Original Post Office Sign as a birthday present to his wife who loves everything British.
We even supplied a number of replica robins for her to fix to the top of the post box to really add to that very British theme that she wanted to achieve; You can see this in the image below:

At UKAA this week we had a slightly unusual request from one of our customers.
Instead of the traditional Royal Mail Red they would like and Original ER Arch back post box painted in Manchester City Football Clubs home colours.
The box has been fully refurbished and then painted in a pale blue (Colour matched to Manchester Cities Football Clubs home strip), we have also painted the lettering in gold.
The box looks stunning and our customers are very pleased. For more information on bespoke painted post boxes please call the team on 01543 222923 or email info@ukaa.com.
