Where's the Public Telephone Box? Part 6



Following on from my previous posts - this time I'm presenting a collection of colour-only postcard images. From the 1960s, there was a new wave of issues which highlighted the nation's new shopping precincts or modernised high streets. 

Now the K8 boxes which arrived on the scene in 1968 can be spotted on these cards, accompanying the classic K2's and K6's which peppered the urban and country landscapes from the 1920s onwards...
