Payphones Past

Texas Payphones

Daniel Zubiate, of Breakwell PictureZ, has been a long-time friend of the Payphone Project, and has lately been filling up the Texas Payphone Photos Section with recent shots of payphones in Buda, El Paso, and Austin. Among Daniel’s finds is this outdoor phone booth at the Salt Flat Café in Salt Flat, Texas.

Texas is a big state, though, and others have helped fill that section of this site. Nathan Day spotted these rare phone booths with rotary dial payphones at the Connellee Hotel in Eastland, and John Tiesworth sent in this artistic image of a phone booth at White Rock Lake.

Check out the growing collection of Texas payphone pictures and send some in!
