  3. #3) What is missing? Well, I don't see a line from the phone to the wall. Of course, the phone book is also missing; back then the phone book was usually beneath the phone.

  9. In addition to the above missing items - an big ash tray next to the phone and often that ash tray upside down on the floor with my mom yelling at my dad about it.

  10. In our house, while I was growing up, there were no ashtrays anywhere.

    The phone book is definitely missing.

    1. John, We had ashtrays, phone books, and telephone cords.

    2. The notebook that you wrote the phone numbers of friends, the doctor, school etc in. We had one that was plastic and under the phone, if you pressed a button the drawer would open.

Put it here ... I can't wait to read it. I have the Captcha turned OFF but blogger insists it be there. You should be able to bypass it.
