Blue pillar box

Today's quiz. This is a genuine working pillar box on the streets of Manchester, but why is it blue? No photoshopping has been used on this photo!

Well, nobody got the right answer! It is a homage to the 'Air Mail' pillar boxes back in the days of yore. It's outside the Air and Space Hall of The Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester's Castlefield.
