Utterly fascinating demo film made by Ma Bell introducing the nice people of fresno the latest invention of 1927, the dial telephone! We get a great demo here aided by a lovely lady and some nice animation. Some fasciting points: Dialling 8 will get you information from some VERY overworked operators. Make Sure you dial the number ALL THE WAY! All of this makes this film a MUST SEE on this site!
