Légende

Female Civilians Working at the International Telephone Exchange, 1931. 'The first of the thirties promised an amazing world, a world where science and progress were rushing ahead to make it yet more wonderful every day. Now you could call New York or Istanbul, or Rio de Janeiro, just as though you were calling the grocer's round the corner. Telephones and radio - in the twenties an amusing toy; today - a world-wide network. And through it, nation could speak peace unto nation'. From "Time To Remember - A New Era", 1931 (Reel 2); documentary about the world in the early 1930s.
