Hold your horses, I'll be off the phone in a minute mom. A barefoot Amish girl chats while her horse and cart patiently wait out the conversation
Wirephoto published in the Tribune newspaper in 1979. Purchased by David Hurn from MMG Photo Archives.
Full title: Hold your horses, I'll be off the phone in a minute mom. A barefoot Amish girl chats while her horse and cart patiently wait out the conversation. The Amish don't allow phones in their homes, so phone booths are used on the sly when they wish to call someone. This phone booth is at a gas station in White Horse, Lancaster Co. about 20 miles east of Lancaster.
