Vintage Letter Slot

I was so excited to find this vintage letter slot at an antique store a few weekends ago! Letter slots are kind of hard to find, especially if one is trying to find a certain size. I have been combing the internet and antique shops, finally it all paid off. 

If you look really close you will see a small black box to the left of the door, that is the mailbox. The mail hardly fits in it and always look like it is falling out, so I thought a letter slot would solve the problem. Unfortunately, it created  another problem. The space along side the door is very narrow and one can't get mail slots that small. Hence, the hunt through antique shops.......

I love that it says "Letters" on the front. Now it just needs a little love and attention and it will be ready for service!
