@295g295 the first dial phone switch went in service in 1931, the rest were installed in the early 50's
-
Before 1960, no dial at all.

@MIKECNW Putting a tone generator in phones in the 40s and 50s would have been a huge task. The phone would have had to have been huge. Things just were not at the point tone dialing would be possible.
The method rotary phones use to dial is simple and effective, and for the time was the best method of calling.
Just think, before the rotary phone you have to turn a crank on the phone to call the operator to connect you to someone else!

Before 1971 - Rotary phone dials and human beings at the other end for customer service
After 1971 - Touch tone phones but either a confusing maze of automated customer service options, or a language-challenged service rep from a country thousands of miles away from where your toilet flooded over.
Progress, LOL.

I know I'm being impractically nostalgic, but I rather miss the whirring sound of the old rotary dial telephones.
