The old Virginia Telephone Museum was maintained by the Richmond Life Member Club of the Old Dominion Chapter #43, Telecom Pioneers of America which was sponsored by Verizon. The Life Member Club had the responsibility of collecting, storing, processing, and displaying items of importance to the heritage of the telephone. The museum had a diverse collection which was readily available to the public for their enjoyment.

The Virginia Telephone Museum was housed in a Verizon building located at the corner of Ellwood Avenue and Thompson Street in Richmond, Virginia. The museum was open the first Friday third Wednesday of each month from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. Group tours were available. The museum was relocated to 713 East Grace Street in Richmond, Virginia in 2005 and the old building was sold.
