trainman34014 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 I've got an old black telephone that would fit in there rather nicely; had it since it was on my desk in the 70's. If anyone finds out who makes the booth's and prices please post info'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike an ordinary callbox, its telephone is located behind a hinged door so it can be used from the outside, and the interior of the box is, in effect, a miniature police station for use by police officers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beetlejuice Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 (edited) Wouldn't a mobile be more practical? I know. Try carrying one of those in your pocket? Can`t be genuine British public phone boxes, because they don`t stink of stale urine inside and they haven`t been vandalised yet.
