Our rotary was black. It’s still actually hooked up and functioning on the wall at my parents.

I don’t think my Grandparents still have their old Baby Blue Rotary, I’m 99% my Grandpa lost it in a flood.

Just a few years back (before Covid) I setup our office assistant with a hot pink rotary phone we had to setup on a digital to analog box to get working

I know there are a ton of colours for dial phones, I’m keen to know what yours that weren’t on the list were.

Red was the coolest, but I had a beige.

Growing up my mother was really into using the phone. Our landline was always connected to someone and my mother chattering. My mom got a fancy white dial pad based wall mounted phone and an extra long phone cord so she could talk on it access the kitchen.

I don’t think we had a rotary but my grandmother did have a light green rotary in the basement for a period

I could design an AL Dead 'Orse. That would ensure people could get their hands on one.
