Thanks for the pictures Jim! I always remember touring Europe back in the 80's and saw a big Telephone museum in one if the Scandinavian countries that was CLOSED the day we were there.

I didn't know O2 operated payphones in other countries, over here they're just a mobile phone provider...

I can see myself in the reflection of the glass...of course in front of a payphone

Copenhagen has a Post and Telephone museum, which I have visited in the past (I'll dig up the pics I have) - didn't make it there this time - plus didn't get a chance to grab a shot of a Swiss payphone, and haven't noticed any in Copenhagen...

København was my guess where we were when I ran into the closed telephone museum but I couldn't recall for certain.

I think I've found Haf!

Terry,

I think I've found Haf!

You did- easy wasn't it?

Relatively easy to find something once it has been pointed out to you that it is there somewhere! Until then you were well hidden.

Thanks for some interesting pictures!  One type of phone I haven't seen since I was stationed in Germany are the contemporary types with the logging counter.  We had to keep account of the call length and parties called for security reasons.
