Phone people?

2nd try at this. Going thru my Mom's house yesterday, I found a Bell poster from 1965 showing historic phones from the get-go, up to the latest future thing, the picture phone (a CRT device).

This may have been from when my Dad got his new office and Bell sold them on a car-dialing phone using plastic punch cards.

Anybody want the poster?

There must be a phone guy somewhere in the forum that will take it.

I'll bite. My mom was an operator for Mountain Bell in the early 50's.

The yellow pages are priceless entertainment between Auto service stations and other long-gone icons of the past.

Only 1/3 page of Lawyers with only names, no BS!
