> I recently purchased a very nice 1949 Western Electric 300 series phone for my wife.  Perfect condition, original dial (was used in a local municipality, has the original number on it), $28.  Even has the original rubber insulated wires.

My inlaws have one of those original 1920 crank phones just like the one
used on "Green Acres". We actually hooked it up to the public service
and sure enough 4-1-1 cranks and got information! By regulation all DTMF
lines have to support rotary dial.

BTW yes I am in the will. ;-)
