Description: | This pamphlet introducing the newly opened 'London Telephone Service Victoria Telephone Exchange 1914' contains an illustrated guide to different areas of the exchange such as the 'Apparatus Room', 'The Switchroom' and 'The Telephonists' Sitting Room'. Descriptions of 'Relay Racks' and 'Distributing Frames' give in-depth technical descriptions of the equipment. 'Hints to Subscribers' set out the sequence of actions needed to make a call through the telephonist. There is also a reminder to hang up the receiver when the telephone is not in use. The Victoria site was the fifth exchange to open in London after the Central, City, Western and Mayfair offices. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Museum of London | Rights holder: | Museum of London | Subjects: | work | Temporal: | 1914 | Source: | Museum of London | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
