Vintage Mailboxes?

Street mailboxes have had the same basic round-topped shape since the early part of the 20th Century. During the Era, they were painted a dark olive green, and from the late fifties to the early seventies they were painted half-red and half-blue. The modern all-blue color scheme was introduced when the Post Office Department became the Postal Service in 1971. You'll see green mailboxes on the streets to this day, but these are relay boxes for letter carrier use only and not for the use of the public. The olive-drab shade used on these relay boxes is somewhat lighter than the shade used on regular mailboxes in the Era.

There were also small, round-topped "letter boxes" mounted on poles in lieu of the larger sidewalk boxes. These followed the same paint schemes as the large boxes, and you'll still see a few of these around, but they've largely been supplanted.

Household mailboxes tended to be similar to those you see today. The standard "Approved By Postmaster General" long metal tunnel-shaped RFD box is a design that goes back to specifications laid out in 1913. Houses in town or apartments would use the small pressed-tin letter boxes that come in various designs, or simply a letter slot in the front door.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

We haven’t spent enough time and energy on our brand and we wanted to do a better job at telling our story. We felt that the name ‘Pacific Restaurant Supply’ – was good – but it was no longer connecting to the core of who we are and where we are going as an organization.

We also wanted to bring more attention to our focus areas of foodservice equipment, foodservice design and custom fabrication – which “restaurant supply” didn’t fully capture.
