Caption:
This 1995 photograph depicted a telephone receiver handset that had been equipped with a volume control, as well as the universal symbol for radiating sound waves on the handle, in plain view. Volume controls are beneficial, not only to the hearing impaired, but to those with normal hearing, who might be making use of the telephone in a noisy environment, like a city street.
