Why Is It?

That's really cool! I wish my folks hadn't gotten rid of theirs years back when they finished the basement....
Yeah it's a nice relic. It's awesome to have the memories associated with my Grandpa Elmer and Grandma Beula using the phone. I have grandma's original clothes iron that she added boiled water to with the walnut handle. My grandfather's cast iron Das hound boot scraper. The original butter churn from the farm and a host of other things that they commonly used on a daily basis
