That sure looks like it is in excellent condition. Doesn't look like the inside has any graffiti.

Do you know where the Phone booth was located when in service?

Find of the month my friend!....Doug




It is in pretty good shape, no graffiti.  It was originally located in Yazoo City, MS.  The man I bought it from got it from his dad, who was the plant manager who removed it from service.  I wanted to get the exact location but he said he didn't know and his dad has Alzheimer's.  He's going to check with his other family members and see if they remember.  It still has the original 1979 Yazoo City phone book in it.  The phone was removed from service in Jackson, MS.  I'm gonna dig into it today and see what I got.

How many variations of vault doors do you guess you currently  have ?

My guess is more than you thought.

I would call your vault door collection "Large". And that is just from the photos you post.
Cool Collection,
JMO,
Jim
Just for fun you could post your guess of number of variations
Followed up by a physical count.....



See what I mean,
You have  an Impressive collection of vault doors.
You live, You learn,
You die, you forget it all.

I currently have 38 different vault doors, 40 if you count the plain chrome and the plain black ones.  Always looking for new ones though.
I really want to find an Indiana Bell.

Amazing collection!
I'll keep my eye out for vault doors now that I know they have a place to go!
