Capehart Communication Collection

An innovative and unique museum experience, the 3C's explores communications technology from the 1880's through the 1990's.

Take a tour of the largest, privately owned museum in the U.S.. Filling up 10,000 square feet, this amazing building houses many different types of communications equipment, electrical appliances and unusual artifacts.

We have a history of telephony in the collection. Most of the items are Western Electric. We have a large variety of central office equipment, phone booths and switchboards, old phones, test equipment, plus some military items. 

We have been featured on The Why Guy (WFAA in Dallas), Texas Country Reporter, DFW Tourism, American Pickers, articles in several magazines and newspapers. My husband has been a consultant on movies and have rented items for movies and local theatre. 

We have been told by several museum related people that we are the largest private telephone collection in the United States. Our area of display is approximately 7,000 square feet. 

We would love for you to come visit us. There is no fee for entry. However, we do accept donations.
