A/B Button Telephone Box

Sadly, this telephone box is not for real, but is an exhibit at the Worcestershire County Museum, at Hartlebury Castle; the kiosk itself was sealed to prevent public access. This type of 'phone was phased out in the 1960s. The A button was pressed after a connection was made to continue the call, alternatively the B button could be pressed to abort the call with the money returned.
