ABSTRACT:
A rural type mailbox having a pivoted platform therein. The platform is tilted from a manually set, metastable position to a stable position by shiftable weights when an article of mail, such as a letter is placed thereon. Such tilting, through a magnetic coupling and levers causes a signal target to be raised into view whereby the owner of the box is informed that mail has been deposited therein.
