My Mama Loves Red
Our first push button phone looked a lot like this. The only difference was that the buttons on our first one were smaller and round, rather than large and square. Going from rotary to push button phones probably doesn't seem like a very big thing but to most of it, it really was. Just as people marvel at the newest cell phones that are available on the market today, everyone thought these never-before-seen little beauties were exciting additions to their homes.
As with our first rotary wall phone, my mom insisted on getting a red slimline phone. Once again, it didn't match but she loved it so she got it anyway. LOL She's still got a red slimline phone in her house today. Red has always been my mom's favorite color and something about red, shiny phones has always made her eyes dance. : )
