ABSTRACT:
A mailbox characterized by a box provided with a hinged door, and a pair of indicator flags pivotally attached to opposing sides of the box. The indicator flags are spring loaded such that one of the flags is biased towards an upright position, and the other flag is biased towards a horizontal position. Spring loaded links are attached to each of the flags to engage a pair of studs provided on opposing sides of the mailbox door. The links are adapted to hold the flags until the door is opened, at which time the flags will rotate to their biased positions.
