description | The present invention relates to a rural mail box having a flap held over the back by means of a magnet until released by pressure from a rod actuated by the opening of the mail box door. Depending upon whether the back or the front of the positioned box is facing the residence of the owner, the outer surface of the back and/or the inner surface of the flap, when in upright position, or only the back side of the box, are covered with a highly visable color so as to become readily visable from a distance when the door of the box is opened and the flap moved from its standby position. After removing the mail from the box the flap is manually moved to the standby position where it is held by a magnet until the box is again opened. The contact between the flap and the rear surface of the box is protected from rain, snow, or the like by an overhanging shield. |
