Phone Box in Tenjin Underground

phone box

I was taking a few photographs of the ice cream shop, and the empty, old style London phone box in Tenjin underground and noticed a man waiting for me to finish. (Japanese people nearly always wait, walk around or climb over flower beds to avoid being in someone elses photograph.)
I thought he was heading for the train platform and apologized for holding him up.
Turns out that he is probably a lot like me, one of the few remaining people in Japan with a pre-paid plan and credit that always runs out just when it all hits the fan.

    Great shot. This could be dated from the 40′s. You have a great knack for street photography.
    Cheers
