Description
"Hawaiian Pay Phones" by Catherine Sherman.
Hawaiian Telcom public pay phones, adorned with orchid flowers, are a colorful sight in Hawaii. This photograph of a pair of pay phones was taken in 2014 in Hanalei on the Hawaiian island of Kauai.
While the pay telephone is becoming an endangered species, public telephones are easy to find in Hawaii. According to a 2016 article, Hawaii leads the nation in the number of pay phones per person by a wide margin.
Hawaiian Telcom was founded in 1883 as the Mutual Telephone Company, chartered under the Kingdom of Hawaii. An original owner was Archibald Scott Cleghorn, father of Princess Ka'iulani. It was the second telephone company chartered in Hawaii, after the Hawaiian Bell Telephone Company in 1880.The company has changed ownership a number of times since.
