More Cutesy Mailboxes

Thank you for more options. While they are very cute and well done would it be possible to get something that is more period, an option more fitting to a medieval game?

Respectfully,

Such as?

Yes, the game is sorely lacking a mechanical/tinkered dragon mailbox.~

For the love of God I need at least 20 more mail boxes :P

Then there's this one, only in Purple. I cannot believe no one has suggested it yet.

A purple llama mailbox would be great! Where do I sign the petition?

medieval times didn't actually have mailboxes.
that is what messengers were for.... or a bard.

I was going to post the same comment but then I googled it and was a bit surprised. Obviously our idea of mail is a more recent invention but does indeed go back in some form to the 1600s.

Thank you for asking.

I'm an advocate of wall mounted mail boxes/slots as they don't block steps. They could be placed in the same manner of a banner or bulletin board.

Here are a couple examples that I posted on the other forum a few years back.

This one is at La Casa de l'Ardiaca in Barcelona. The features have some humorous reference that you can google if you're interested.

One From Venice.

And of course Ye Olde Green Man And Ye Old Gargoyle

Just a couple ideas.

Respectfully.

Ahh.... my period of study is more around the 1300 - 1400 period. 1600s is right around Rennaissance time (late medieval to renn period) - so mailboxes then makes more sense..

Are you seriously thanking them for that ridiculous attempt at a sale ?

Good! So perhaps a Mailbox in the shape of a Bard then? 🙂

The female pirate mailbox would be the highest selling item of all time!

That comment makes me want a pirate costume...
peg leg, eye patch, parrot on the shoulder.
female and male versions of pirates...

this comment also made me picture a female pirate holding the wooden barrel that's already available now... when you get mail, either the flag goes up or the lid opens downward and liquor drips...

Anne Bonnie
A real female pirate. 😂

OR

Iolo sitting on a stump with a drum that opens when you have mail? 😂
