An interesting idea. The stamp is arguably the most important part of a
letterbox, so you
would have to start with the stamp, progress to the logbook, then the other
stuff.

The
final letterboxer would add the last component (ie., the log) and any other
additional
goodies they wish and would send the completed letterbox on its way as a
full-fledged
hitch-hiker.

Once its a completed letterbox, it could be mailed to the originator for
planting or could
become a hitch-hiker passed along by the person who completes it with its final
component.
