I never realized that people had to be instructed like this on how to dial a telephone - of course, what this was replacing was a live operator to whom you spoke, telling her (always a female) the number you wanted, or the person.
I have no memory of talking to an operator for local calls, but I sure remember doing it for long-distance calls. You could ask for "station to station" calls or "person to person" calls.
I wanted to show my 7 year old sister how old phones were used back then xP

I love how even the bloke delivering the phone book wore a jacket and tie.

This is a riot. I miss the rotary dial-you’d jam your damn finger off trying to win concert tickets the FM radio would sometimes give away.
