Re: Who Can Still Remember..........

My grandmother had a set of these glasses.  As a child I loved drinking from them.  When she passed away, we got to go through the house and pick a few things.  I picked one of the cups a purple one.

I was a long distance operator when this was the case.  One night, a lady placed a call and gave me the 5 digit number she was calling (12345) and....as serious as could be, she told me, "Operator, you have to go through the "Townhall" there to get that number!  "Townhall 12345!"

 


 

 

Anyone remember Person to Person phone calls?
