A handy container created using a digital scan of the first Olympics gold postbox.
To commemorate British gold medal winners at the 2012 Summer Olympics and 2012 Summer Paralympics, Royal Mail painted a number of post boxes gold. Each gold medallist had a post box painted in recognition of their achievement, usually in their home-town. It marked the first occasion in modern times that the colour of post boxes in the United Kingdom had been changed from their traditional red.The project was launched on 24 July by painting the pillar box at Westminster Abby, which is the pillar box which was scanned for this printable design.
