Cemetery Payphone, Queens NYC. October, 2006
Cemetery Payphone, Queens NYC. October, 2006 - This payphone is in an alley just outside Third Calvary Cemetery on Queens Boulevard. The phone accepts incoming calls, but only when the phone is answered on the first ring. The number is (718) 803-0365. UPDATE: I spotted this payphone again in July, 2009. There is no longer a dial tone, the sign is toppled, and my guess is that this phone at the cemetery will soon find its way to a cemetery for payphones.

Scotland Phone Booth
Remote Scotland Phone Booth - "I took a picture of some cows around a telephone booth in Scotland. Unfortunately I can't recall the name of the small village.

(319) 397-9990. Lebanon, Iowa, Telephone Booth
Lebanon, Iowa, Telephone Booth: (319) 397-9990 - Lebanon is no longer a town. It's merely the crossroads between county roads J-40 and V-64 in Van Buren county, Iowa. Van Buren county is in southeastern Iowa. Diagonally across the road from the store is an Amish school. The Lebanon Store still operates as a restaraunt. I believe its hours are in the morning before noon. Photo and comments by Doubleu

(302) 349-9987 Greenwood Inn Motel. Route 13, Greenwood, Delaware 19950 - He walks away from the payphone, unaware that the traveller driving past (myself) took note of the drama going on inside that phone booth. How many of these highway-side phone booths are left in America?

(302) 349-9987 Greenwood Inn Motel. Route 13, Greenwood, Delaware 19950 - I might have tried for a better highway shot of this phone booth. But the weather was lousy and the traffic was too unpredictable for me to risk standing out in the road to get the right shot. Someday I'll stake out this location and get it right.
