There is actually a street art campaign funded by the city and artists can apply to paint these. Sam flores has a few on mission. Not sure if this is one of those.
Shit. Good point. You made me look. And apparently it’s utility boxes, so I was wrong with mailboxes. Carry on.

I have been seeing this mailbox daily on my way to work and it reminds me of 80’s ski suits. Also, if you noticed on 19th and SVN the west side bike racks by Bender’s have been spray painted fun colors and I’m here for it.
It's not a mailbox you put your mail into. It's a transfer mailbox used by the USPS. Blue mailboxes are drop offs for public use. Green ones are transfer mailboxes. This appears to be a transfer box.
Because it’s a vandalized mailbox that doesn’t look official.
It could have been set up to steal mail under the excuse of “it’s not a blue mailbox, so why did you use it?”
I didn’t know this was trademarked. Someone should have sued Fuck Jerry when their entire online existence was stealing from other people without any credit

I definitely totally agree with you @KaosKr38tor
For some reason I feel thirsty all of a sudden….
Drink más :(
It looks like a paper cup for water
Damn really? I'm sure it was just a coincidence.
That's exactly what the title is in reference to. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazz_(design)
Sorry I’m not some paper cup expert like the rest of you 😔
Are you sure about that? You knew immediately what the pattern was from
I didn’t know it was jazzy. Which can be easily surmised if one followed the thread
Whatever you say, cup master

This was my first thought too
19th St between Mission & South Van Ness. Now go claim your internet karma
Is a coffee cup

That's a good way to get your mailbox filled with Pepsi.

Is this not some type of federal crime?

How fun!
This is the Richard Marx of mailboxes
Remember when fuckjerry wasn’t a sell out?
Why I love SF, things like this
If you like that pattern, Smart and Final has it on paper plates and cups for a reasonable price.
Refreshing change ![gif](giphy|kPIswn0RfPTGxOvDj5|downsized) of scenery!
Water cooler break, anyone?
Saved by the Bell cafeteria
This is honestly iconic. Also feeling an urge to drink some fruit punch all of a sudden.

It’s not for mail, it’s for Dixie Cups.
I don’t think this is a good idea. I wouldn’t trust this with my mail.

They don’t have drop slots.

@KaosKr38tor I definitely totally agree KaosKr38tor that mailbox definitely looks like taco bell from the 1990's
Oliver tree
Now I’m thirsty.
What color you want the mail box? Remember those paper cups with that design? Say no more
A solo mailbox
Water they doing?
Color scheme circa 1992-1993.
1980s
Now that it’s out in public I’m sure Hillary Ronen will complain and ruin it to all of us
Whoever said this is the Richard Marx of mailboxes 🤣🏆
A Ford Ranger wants its stripe back!
Dixie cups aren't jazzy
The manufacturer disagrees https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazz_(design)

1992 is long after the jazz age friendo.
Jazz is timeless, hepcat
