I took this picture for my kids. Some day I will need to tell them what a public phone looks like and what it cost. It may come up because one of Papa's oldies songs or it may come up in a history paper, but I knew when I saw this tonight that I needed to take a picture for posterity. "Yes, child of mine, there was a time when people actually talked only on one of these and the only people caring on conversations with themselves in public had mental illness."
