Phone Box, Brecon Beacons, Wales, 2003
The red Telephone 'Kiosk' was first seen in 1926 as result of a Post Office competition. Made of cast iron it proved too costly. A later variant was nicknamed "The Vermillion Giant", combining a telephone and stamp machine. The stamps however, became soggy in wet weather. The "Jubilee Kiosk" appeared in 1936 and more than 60,000 of
these were introduced throughout Britain. British Landscape Panoramic Photograph.
