  1. We have acquired the original Safe from the Madison Post Office. Army Green in color with Gold leaf lettering UNTITED STATES POST OFFICE MADISON CT. The safe was giving to me from my grandfather who had it tucked away in his restraunt for many years. He has since past away without leaving us the combo. With any luck we were Just woundering if anyone retired or know of someone who would remember the combination. The Safe looks great in our house unopened of course and maybe someday we will have to find a talented locksmith to open it. Thanks. Genevieve
