There only a few of these phone boxes left and I believe we have the Wizard to thank for them. I didn’t live in Christchurch back in 1988 but that was the year of the “Telephone Box War’ when the Wizard stood up to Telecom who were painting all of the phone boxes blue (this is a typically stupid telco thing to do). Personally, I think it would be great if the city had a few more red phone boxes in the CBD!
