Do you ("you" generally being those under 20)?
I actually have a positive history with this rotary phone. When we first met, it was a cast-off item from either my grandmother or great-aunt, when I was still a kid. She no longer needed it (and had moved into the Touch-Tone era), so she gave it to Chase and I to play with.
Yep, it was given to us as a toy.
In all our games of Apartment, Library, Post Office, Doctor's Office, School, etc., this phone played a role. To operate a successful business, you have to have a phone!
Today this phone is actually in use on my kitchen wall. I do have plans to replace it (sorry, dude) with something more attractive, but until then, it's doing its job quite well. And every time I pick it up, I feel transported back to summer break, playing Pretend with Chase. And that's not bad at all!
