This photo was obviously not taken by a cellphone or digital camera, but I couldn’t resist, given John’s photo of a working payphone!!!

Remember when your only phone was in the kitchen and at least one other house shared your party line? This is me, circa 1952, talking on the phone to Lynnie Brost after my mom had washed my hair in the kitchen sink.
