Phone photo 1020
How about that? A Phone photo that actually has a photo of a phone!
This public pay telephone booth is still in use in McCleary, Washington. It resides in front of the police station. It appears to be from the 1970s and has a design I'd call retro futuristic.
In the background is McCleary's main intersection, which includes a stop sign equipped with a flashing red light on top. The smokestack back there belongs to Simpson's door plant, McCleary's top payroll provider in this town of 1600 or so.
McCleary was a great source of inspiration for many of the tales told in the Bezango WA 985 series of comix.
