Phone Box?


I don't know if this is actually the case or not, but a visitor to the historic building where I volunteer thought this might be an old telephone box like the one she had in her late 19th century home. Oddly enough, if that is the case, it still serves that purpose, as there is a security phone inside that is used to make contact with various people. The visitor also remembered a fold-down seat that was part of the setup in her home.

  1. Lo que si recuerdo, es las antiguas cabinas que había en la calle y que ya han desaparecido, con el uso de los móviles.
    Feliz Año Nuevo.

  2. It's too narrow for a phone, I guess. Back in the day, phones were big. But I like it.

    1. I've added a link to the type of phone that I think could have been housed in this box, if, indeed, that was its original purpose. I'm told people used to ring up a local operator to connect them with other home phones.
