Description
Before there were cell phones, before there were cordless phones, and way back when...there were switchboard operators who made sure your phone call went to where it was supposed to go. Some may even remember Lily Tomlin's skit as a phone operator "One Ringy Dingy..." This scene is in a small town museum in New Mexico.

I used to operate a telephone switchboard, Mary. I must be ancient if you found one in a museum. It's an amusing photograph...
Mary Lee Dereske replied:
Not that ancient! I have a friend who also operated one, and she's still pretty young :-)
