Old lineman tools
« on: July 28, 2007, 09:54:49 PM »
I was at a museum in Brownsville, Oregon today (where all residents are white, oddly enough) and their phone company display had the most comprehensive set of lineman tools I've ever seen!  And I've seen a lot of shitty small town museums, I tell you what.  Here's a few pictures:













You can view all these pictures at their full size at http://www.flickr.com/photos/52904685@N00/sets/72157601071027983/.  Plus there's a few other pictures in that album, such as an operator switchboard with a creepy operator mannequin.
