for the most part. the last time I tried to use one to call across an Interstate Highway it was demanding a long distance fee because the area code changed. that was the last time

Excellent shot, hard to find actual pay phones anymore
What are those things lol - nice capture!!
Not just the pay phones died a death. I don't think other than my own and maybe two others I could recall a single number in my phone. I remember when you used to have to know three or more to be sure of talking contacting someone.
yes, the good old UK red telephone box has been used for everything from office aquariums to saunas... but then it is more versatile than these poor things
Something you don't see every day!
Interesting find!
Smartphones are better, but they are spying on us! Great photo!
Exellent shot.
I can't recall even seeing one around the KC area for the past several years. A truly vintage capture, Richard.
Maybe eventually a kind soul will find a home for them, like on eBay...
Very good 🌺 👍 🙋♂️ 5️⃣ ⭐️ 💯 😎
