How to Use the Dial Phone

March 29th, 2005

Lots of interesting stuff to be found on the Internet Archive. For example, there’s a 1927
AT&T training movie on how to use the new phones that had just come out with dials. It’s a silent movie, of course.

For more about the Internet Archive, I strongly recommend this great talk by Brewster Kahle, its founder.
