i've visited a number of private telephone collections and Don's is absolutely massive by any standard. i can't do it justice, nor can any photo album. but he has, among other treasures, some highlights from my memory:

  - autovon equipment
  - several generations of digital switches
  - electromechanical switches too
  - loads and loads of paper documents on compact shelving
  - bell labs prototypes
  - phones that i never knew existed
  - the first switch from Sprint's long distance network

i sincerely hope that he finds homes for all his collection.
