Love it....neither are used very much. I wish I would get a hand written letter.

Oh, a good find for tradition. An old fashioned call box. Or perhaps it is the Tardis?? V

And the small blue box is for spam?

Great shot. I suspect I will be seeing a few of these next year when I am in the UK.

It used to be a nice tradition, indeed... V.

Ours were never this interesting.
Bill Ewart Jr05-Oct-2013 22:17
American phone booths were never this classy!
Frank Brault05-Oct-2013 20:22
A marvelous juxtaposition and food for thought on where we are going. Love the reds. V

Both traditions sadly on the way out. Makes for an attractive scene.

Nice shot. These were made to last.

interesting artifacts you have there...reminders of a passing era..

I miss real letters... this is a cool shot of an old (lol) tradition.

I feel if I am in England, but okay it's Bad Ems, still beauitful and give me your adress and I will send you a letter Boris.

That telephone box looks very English...

There are probably two generations now who wouldn't know how to make a phone call here, or write a letter either... how times change.

Traditions I hope always remain...a great find, Boris
