- Coin-fed pay phones peaked at more than 2 million installations across the United States in the 1990s, before hand-held cellular phones became commonplace. The number of working phones was estimated at fewer than one-fourth that many in 2013, after the industry was left to small, independent providers once the nation's two principal providers, AT&T and Verizon, dropped pay-phone service.

Thing of the past ...
The first known photo of a Rocky Mountain Collegian staff, in 1896.
“After much delay, resulting from a number of causes, the Collegian has at last made its appearance. The managers will do their utmost to produce a creditable paper, and one that will meet with the approval of all friends of the College. It shall be our earnest endeavor at all times to present all of the College news — what the students are doing in different departments, the changes that are being made, and, in fact, everything of interest connected with the College.”
