This postbox on the corner of Kenn Road and St Michael's Road http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3930848 is a rarity. The insignia dates it to the 326 day reign of King Edward VIII who became king on the death of his father on January 20th 1936 and abdicated on December 11th 1936. One source states that some Edward VIII postbox doors were replaced by George VI doors, a fate which did not happen here.
