levin@BBN.COM (Joel B Levin) (01/20/89)

This is the first one I've seen -- a two column by two inch display ad
in this morning's Boston Globe business section:
----------
			      ATTENTION
		       PAYPHONE LOCATION OWNERS

     .  Highest Commission On All 0+ Long Distance Calls
     .  $25 - $100 Signing Bonus Per Payphone
     .  Direct To You -- Never Available Before
     .  Keep Your "Bell" Payphone

     Recent Justice Dept. ruling lets YOU choose your 0+ long distance
     service.  By selecting ITI on your ballot, you will receive the
     most per call revenues monthly, in addition to your present Bell
     Commissions.  Call or write:

		      CTI PUBLIC COMMUNICATIONS*
		    Pay Telephone Sales & Service
		       [gives street address.]
	   [gives 800 and 617 area code telephone numbers.]
		  *Divison of CTI Inducstries, Inc.
