Telephones Through the Ages

Another collage from Morpeth. The top left and bottom right are telephone boxes old and new, and the other photos were taken in the Courthouse which is now a museum.

I have spent the morning gardening so am having a quiet afternoon now.

Fab collection. I do love an old fashioned proper phone. Our family dial phone was one of those green bakelite ones at the top.

I think I've used/worked with every one of those phones, except for the super vintage one. Beautifully captured.

My parents had one just like bottom left. I remember it well. I spent a lot of time on it when I was a teenager. Fond memories, thank you Babs.

@susiemc Our first phone when I was very small was like the bottom left one too and I can still remember the phone number.

[Renee Salamon]

What a great collection - not too many before my time

[Mags]

Oh wow! Super collage. I prefer the older phones. =)

A great collection of telephones. The scary thing is that I've seen or used similar phones to most of these.

I am sure this collage has brought back lots of memories for some of you.

@aq21 Thanks. Brought back memories for me too. The only one I didn't remember was the second left on the bottom row. All the others I have seen or used too.

@clifford Me too Cliff. Our first phone when I was small was like the bottom left one and I still remember the phone number. I also remember counting out the pennies into shillings when cashing up in my Mum's grocery shop in the UK.

[Shutterbug]

It’s fun to see this historical collection of phones.

[Kathy]

Nice shots of the different phones.

[Kathy A]

It's amazing how far the phone has come
