Summary edit

Description
English: Anonymous postbox. Close up of "anonymous" postbox in Haymarket (see 1131682), "anonymous" referring to the lack of royal cipher on the front, a particular feature of boxes dated between 1879 and 1887 manufactured by the firm Handyside during this period. The positioning of the aperture implies that this box dates from before 1883, later examples having the aperture positioned lower down (e.g. see 772595).
