Slice of what was  by joysabin

Slice of what was

This was taken a few years ago while visiting/prowling used bookstores in the general Phoenix area. The payphone is very dated as is the capacity limit of this cafe. I think that the white cord was someone who was charging their iPhone which is what drew my eye originally. This another archive dive as my Muse is still a bit non-communicative.

Hope all you Moms/Mums who celebrate today, that you have a wonderful Mother's Day.
I like the contrast between the pay phone and iPhone- good catch. I also like the processing- very artsy. I don't think your muse is absent, you're just speaking different languages right now because I think the treatment here was very creative! fav

Cool edit... I love the sticker on the phone handle... call anywhere in the USA for 25 cents a minute... definitely an ad before cell phones became popular.

There are few of us left that know how to work one of these antiques! Great to find one and document it.

So truly grateful and thankful for your kind and supportive comments. Those ancient tools of communication are rare these days. I wonder what the future will think of them. I can even remember using a nickle for a phone call, now that dates me. :-)

@olivetreeann I really like how you framed Muse persnickitiness. I agree 110%, still learning to speak kindly to my muse when she is just taking a breather or two.
