Party line phones! 🤣

Ring ring: Hello, whose there?

Caller: Can you get Mabel your neighbor on the third house down from you, on their phone? 🤣

@DeWayfarer My mom has explained the party line phone to me and I vaguely understand. Such a bizarre concept to me. 😂

@WanderingThrough I was a kid myself at the time. Mid 1960s. I wasn't supposed to answer the phone. Of course I often did.

@DeWayfarer Haha, of course you did! I think most children would. 😂
