I was about 5 or 6 but that's how we made calls, then the high tech rotary phone came out.
I found this picture as I know this the type phone and color we had installed in our kitchen.

. The other prefix in our neck of the woods was "REpublic." Funny how those things stick in one's head!
Like Ping said, it comes with only one wrench. It's really as set it and forget it settup anyway.

When I was growing up, this is what our home phone looked like until we finally got one of them new fangled push button dealies.........
We thought we were really styling when this arrived:
We never did get a wall mounted phone.
We had a 7 digit phone number, but I certainly don't remember what it was. That was many bottles of libation ago.......
Best feature of a wall mount was you never had to look for it and we never lost it.When I was growing up, this is what our home phone looked like until we finally got one of them new fangled push button dealies.........

I can't remember what I had for breakfast but dammit, I know what my phone number was when I was a kid!
Me, too! My mom embroidered it on the inside of our jackets. "My name is LittleBird. ST 3-2024".
My mother refused to have a phone mounted on the wall. Ours was kept on a side table in the dining room with a cord long enough she could carry the phone just about anywhere in the house she wanted to.
We had a party line, shared with the neighbors... I remember picking up the phone and apologizing to the neighbor for having to make an emergency phone call.
She should have added your address so if you got lost they could stuff you in a box and UPS you back home.Me, too! My mom embroidered it on the inside of our jackets. "My name is LittleBird. ST 3-2024".
What I remember most about the telephone was when I was very young. (No comments on this - get it?)! but when I answered the phone as a young boy, people thought I was my mother answering. Used to P!$$ me off royally. And my father was a practical joker, who called people and if their children answered the phone and asked who was calling, my father's response every time was......."GOD." So embarrassed was I. 
You could get an extra long springy cord on the handset too. After a few months it waded up like a bowl of spaghetti but it worked as long as you had the patience to unclustereffit.
