A semi-ancient payphone


Today a friend of mine took me for a Sunday lunch at a traditional Singaporean restaurant. I don't remember the name of the place or even the street, but it was behind Raffles Hotel on a small street.

While waiting to be seated I noticed the above 1970's style pay phone at the restaurant's entrance. As it had to be over 30 years old, it still was in superb shape and probably working. This could only happen in Singapore, where everything is well taken care off.

The phone reminds me of the shapes and colors that were used in toys when I was a child.
