This an actual US Postal Service Box that came out around 2007 in celebration of the 30th anniversary of Star Wars. They were popular. Too popular. You had thieves trying to jack them off their mountings. Which is a federal offense. Stealing federal property. So the decision was made to take them off the streets and "decommission" them. This is, AFAIK, only one of 2 left. This one is at an undisclosed location. Which means I was not given permission to disclose it's location. I was given permission to post these photos. Which I took. The other one is at the Postal Museum. There might be some still around in military bases, but I have not seen one either in California or where I live. If you see one, let me know.
One of the perks of my job is I do get to see once in a while some very cool stuff.
