Best Answer

Yes. In Britain, when post boxes were first developed in the 1860s, green was adopted as the standard colour. However, they were repainted red after the hexagonal Penfold became the common design. The first postbox was repainted in July 1874 in London, and over the next decade, all the boxes were changed from green to red.
