Ask Anyone have a payphone?

I need one as a prop and have no idea where to find one! Happy to buy, borrow, or rent for a few days.

You're looking for Recent Histories Prop Rental in Hamilton. They have a small warehouse full of tons of various rental props. I'd be shocked if they don't have several payphones available.

Does it have to be portable? There’s one still installed at the intersection of N Bradford and E Eager. It’s missing its receiver but those are easy to find on eBay

I think Fells Point Corner Theatre has one. If you email the theater, you might be able to borrow it. When do you need it by?

Ideally portable, but thank you that’s super helpful!
