The Bell System Memorial...A Clear Choice for
Telecommunications Research and Archival Information
The Bell System Memorial has been around since 1997, and
was originally founded by David Massey. This is a unique site that
specializes in digitizing of historical documents, as well as restoration of
legacy telecommunications hardware. Our site generates considerable data
traffic on its servers, and has been a trusted supplier of historical
business information since 1997. Our site enables businesses, researchers,
government organizations, and others to glean our rich and diverse archives
that our team has taken years to scan, and document with accuracy. Virtually
no company or organization has a central portal for all aspects of various
documents like we have, and for past employees and family members to share
their stories and materials. The Bell System Memorial has received numerous
donated photos, reports, and other rare documents that would have otherwise
been thrown away. Our team carefully preserves these items, and we scan and
digitize these images, and chronologically archive them on our site. This
makes The Bell System Memorial a one-of-a-kind site where the general public
not only shares in our information, but they help to contribute to it as
well.
