Summary/Abstract: The article considers the development of one of the most important technical innovations of the industrial age, telephone communication, in a Russian province. The author studies the example of a major industrial centre Ivanovo-Voznesensk of the early 20th century and demonstrates how telephone had won its place in the industrial and commercial spheres of the city, as well as in its everyday life. The author examines the degree of accessibility of the technical novelty for different social strata of the population. Special attention is paid to the arrangement of a long-distance telephony and the role of local manufacturers in this process. In the conclusion the author estimates the role of telephone communication in the further development of industry and business in the Ivanovo-Voznesensk industrial area.
