Show a picture of something that was used often by people in your youth, but is rarely, or never used now - The nostalgia thread

Rotary and even, to a lesser extent, landline phones.

I had one of these in my first house when I first moved in. It was a bit old fashioned even back then, but it was functional. It was even blue, similar to this one.

We got a fancy landline phone set up and cassette recorded answering machine later when my cousin moved in as my roommate. High tech stuff .
