That's not just a phone box, that's art. This is art in something I would consider.

Yeah but it looks like art that is sitting in a scene shop which, most likely, means it's not really art it's fake art. Before I went and spent $2.2k on a phone booth I'd want a certificate of authenticity.

I designed and built a phone booth for a local comic book shop oh, ten years or so ago.

I have a bunch of those sitting in the back of our warehouse. We also have one out on the corner of the building.

Whether or not it is in fact "authentic" it does certainly look old.
