Get smart: phone booths and the memories
PUBLIC phone booths first appeared in Shanghai streets in the early 1990s when very few people could afford cell phones and a pager was still a luxury. At its peak, the city had more than 8,000 public phone booths. Yet with the growing popularity of mobile phones, the public phone booths have been gathering dust. Shanghai Daily photographer Wang Rongjiang documented the buzz of change.
