Born in 1971, Bradford McDougall is a Baltimore furniture designer and blacksmith who has been selling the one-of-a-kind mailboxes since 1991, when his first effort won an award at a craft fair in New York.  Constantly inspired by new designs, the majority of his mailboxes are made of virtually indestructible metal.  While some of McDougall’s customers use their metal mailboxes solely as decorative sculptural elements, others use them as their everyday mailboxes.  McDougall’s work is available locally at craft fairs and has been sold at Neiman Marcus in Washington, D.C.  His whimsical, handcrafted mailboxes have gained exposure at places such as the American Visionary Art Museum gift shop, Baltimore, Maryland, and the prestigious American Craft Council Craft Fair in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
