I enjoyed these pictures.  Besides the telephones, it is interesting to see the room decor, old TV sets, etc.  It really takes you back to a different time.

We are overdue a new hotel room with phone photo.

This one dates from the early 1900s.

Great idea FABphones! Really neat to see the phones as well as the other period appliances. A lot more flare than hotel rooms now for sure.

We weren't facing the end of the world back then.  We thought the future was boundless.

With that Touch-Tone phone, must be from the 80s - an era that seems like yesterday to a senior like me.
