Thanks, Don! Payphones are disappearing over here as well; in fact, the 
morning after I took this shot, the pictures of the girls had been 
removed (as they are periodically), and a second phone booth that was 
next to this one had disappeared as well. I doubt that someone stole a 
phone booth in the middle of central London, so BT must have removed it 
for commercial reasons.
