Telephone operator. Woman working in a telephone exchange in Paris,1890. Connections between early telephones were made manually by the operators. Technological improvements in this Parisian exchange meant that people,for the first time,provided a number rather than a name,and they were passed between fewer people before being connected. This innovation was known as Poste assis. Taken from Physique Populaire,1891 | |
