I haven't seen a rotary photo in forever. We had one when I was a kid.

Great shot for the week's theme.

I remember these phones and My Mother's pride in her first "Princess" PINK phone. My mother loved anything PINK to excess. Most of us siblings shun the color to this day. I was dressed in pink and looked hideous with my sallow colored part-Indian skin.

I remember those, too! I haven't seen one in a very long time.

And you could drop that phone off the roof and it would remain intact.

My sister had one like this until recently. They were much more solid than the modern things. I love the way you framed this.

How cool to have access to the past like that! Really neat shots.
If those wheels could talk, imagine the stories...

PERFECT! I love what you came up with. So clever. Great photo. I remember my phone like that. I even had one that was bright red and we called it the "bat phone".

I played too! I’m just running behind in visiting others. Come on over.

Have a wonderful weekend!
