According to the information in the site of Correos (Spanish postal service), this stamp issued in March 2001 features the oldest mail box in Spain. It is located in a house in Mayorga (province of Valladolid). There is an inscription on the mail box: "Coreo / Ano de / MDCCXCIII" ('Mail / Year / 1793). The first reference to mail boxes in Spanish laws dates from 1762.
