Capitol-47150. The other Salem exchange was Empire.

Party lines were for the original lurkers. Used to have two teenage girls living next door when I was eight. All you had to do was pick up the phone..........

Fp, grandpa in P.A had a party line untill damn near the 80'S

Any old cc loggers out there?

I still pick up the phone and listen to see if the line is free, a habit I can't seem to break.I don't think today's youth[under 40] have the disipline to share a phone line. Oh ya-25 of 25.

Got all of them, but your' only old as dirt if Television shows are as far as you can go back. Your' "older than dirt" when you can run off a list of Radio shows like, "Fibber Magee & Molly", "The Burns & Allen Show", The Colgate Hour", "Rin Tin Tin", "Our Miss Brooks", "Dagwood & Blondie", "The Green Hornet", "Dragnet","The Highway Patrol". Other TV shows? -"Car 54 Where Are You", "The Roy Rodgers & Dale Evans Show", "The Lone Ranger", "Dobie Gillis",
"Chriswell Predicts", "You Asked For it", "Oueen for a Day" (not what it would mean today). There are many, many more. I was born in 45'. Any one remember those weekly serials at the local movie house? "Buck Rodgers", "Rocket Man" and so on?
By the way Blkbrant, it was "I Married Joan"

its nice to be only 18! only got 4
