Well, once the hand crank went, we then had a party line dial-phone. (rotary dial, of course.) But this was after the hand crank went away and they automated the exchange so you actually, incredibly, had 24 hour calling service, though who would ever WANT to call anybody after 9:00 at night, or who would ever want to GET a call then, nobody could understand.
