About the book

Were an alien to descend on suburban or rural New Zealand, it would no doubt be amused, baffled and charmed by the idiosyncratic letter boxes that line up outside each house, many of them fabricated from playful materials and tweaked or painted to resemble anything from a cheeseburger to a cuckoo clock, or converted from milk churns, motorbike fuel tanks or microwave ovens. This little gift book celebrates the humble Kiwi letter box in all its glory. Over 50 full-colour images of unusual and amusing letter boxes are accompanied by text relating some of the more amusing or heart-warming anecdotes from the history of the New Zealand postal service.
