About Phone History
Our History
The idea for Phone History was born in 1972, when a group of local history enthusiasts came together to discuss the need for a dedicated organization to preserve and share the history of the telephone industry. Thanks to their vision and hard work, Phone History was officially founded in 1976.
Our Mission
At Phone History, our mission is to collect and preserve artifacts and documents that represent the efforts and tell the stories of the countless dedicated telephone industry professionals who built, maintained, and operated telecommunications systems and networks.
