Also on display is an old coin-operated rotary phone, which could be found in phone booths on the streets 40 years ago for anyone who needed to make a call. Visitors can also see its successor, the card payphone, which made it possible to call from the street by inserting a phone card into the machine. The beautifully designed phone cards are also part of the exhibition.<\/p>\n<h2>Team and supporters<\/h2>\n<p>Partners: <span style=\"color: #007696;\"><strong>Ivo K\u00f5vamees<\/strong><\/span>, the
