Image source: FlashHeart59 Arthur Waite: When my Wife was in hospital for a two-weeks stay, the only telephone in her area was a pay phone – cells not allowed because of ‘interference with medical equipment”. So, every time I came to see her I’d bring a couple of quarters and put one in the coin return as I passed. I heard from the nurses that people were charmed to be ‘lucky’. Made someone’s day.

Image source: SinisterNails PattyK: “Adventures with the Mojave Phone Booth” by Godfrey “Doc” Daniels tells of a pay phone in the middle of nowhere. People from around the world would visit it in order to answer it when it rang. And people from around the world would call it, hoping that someone would be there to answer it.
