Please god let me go back to the 80s and have my childhood over.

I wish they would bring these back I gave up mobiles after the flood. I want to be young again . a lot of good and bad things about that era . the late 80s and 90s were the best.

notice how none of the ads now show colorful clothing and just everyday people looking good. its all old news readers who were overpaid and boring.

I’ve actually seen a few of those phones still in active use today like they have one up in the old public phone booth in Wahella while there’s also one at The Koonawarra camp establishment! :)

You can hear that Ground Connect/Reversal just before the STD pips... Surprised they just didn't "fake" a call... Also, I miss those pips..

Which makes the ad strangely historically significant as it records all the exchange artefacts from an era that has long gone.

I remember the pips as well, and I also remember the telecom beeper commercials the one with the cartoon Owl.

Not as iconic fall damaging as the "Big Red" or "Heavy Green" more alittle classy and found in many malls or shopping centres. In the 90's there was a blue version with a black handle etc.

@ziggyhogan7560 6 месяцев назад

I remember the blue one but it was a way different design with the hand set on the face of the machine . They were generally on a stand with a little open box for a phone book and they do were digital in number dialing and had a small screen they were dark blue . The orangecone were much better quality and never seemed to break the blues always had a problem though .cheers

My school sill has one of these (a bit beaten up but still in a good condition).

They used to have these at the Queen Victoria Building.

How much were those phone's worth.

@RodsPinballVideos 9 лет назад

Not sure how much new. But back in the late 90's when they still worked, you'd see them selling in the Trading Post paper for around $1000. Today they are pretty much worthless.
