In case you hadn't noticed I'm a bit of a nostalgic and at home I sometimes find myself missing the stationary phone... The handle, although heavier, was so much nicer to hold than the mobile and it seemed to fit your ear better too... Not to mention the cord you could play with.....and just look how pretty it looks when ladies flirt, chirp and chatter on the phone...
The master of phone chatting pin ups was no doubt George Petty....
Do you miss it? -or do you, in fact, still have one?
i miss such phones...and the opportunity they provided for slamming the receiver down on someone (like a telemarketer)
ReplyDeletefun fact: Petty's model was his young teenage daughter!
Almost forgot the slamming! That was so satisfying...
ReplyDeleteI know about the daughter model.. Creepy...
But I do adore his pin ups.
Love the post wished I looked that good on the phone...Thank you for your comment...Bullet bras also known as Torpedo the floating was what they did, everythings pulled up!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, I see! That kind of floathing! Pulled up and pointed out...;)
