How to use a rotary dial phone (1936)

I never thought I'd feel nostalgia for rotary dial telephones. I must be getting old.

  1. I think it was 1953 they herded us down to the school auditorium a rep from the phone company explained the changeover from operators to dial phones. Where my grandparents lived 2 miles from the center of town they got phones in 1939 but WWII took all the copper supply so electricity had to wait until 1948.

  2. I’m no spring chicken but I don’t remember operators.
