Wow, that is very retro. I suppose they haven't changed much, except for the price! 50 cents?

If it's black and white that means it ought to still take a dime ;) Happy WW

How fascinating to find an actual pay phone. But 50 cents? Wow. Inflation, I suppose. Plus a lack of business. I think the B&W is quite fitting.

The first thing that sprang to mind, before I ever saw your tagline, was "Wow, so they do still have those. Far out."

I wonder if my kids will remember what a pay phone is...

Check out my photos from my Sunday afternoon at the beach: http://tinyurl.com/nh4xdg

Great photo. A real blast from the past. I'm afraid pay phones are now an endangered species. Hmmm... I can still remember when phone calls were only a dime...

Wow, how very retro. But check the price, I think they're what, $1 now?

I fell in love with this shot at first sight!

Excellent B&W!
I can almost hear everything that has happened in here.
This shot for sure tell more then just ONE history.
It tells the beginning of a novel! And this should be the cover!

Mycket vackert!!
