Living through the tail end of the analog age, I still fondly remember the shape, heft, and feel of old rotary phones. Something about making a call on those old cradle style phones made reaching out and touching someone seem a bit more intimate.

But I also love newfangled doo-dads and whizbang features, so we went all "aww golly gee whiz, that sure is keen!" when we saw this Cordless 1930's Retro Style Phone. Sans cord, the phone also has a concealed push-button dial, caller ID, call waiting, instant redial and three-line display. With a red paint job, Commissioner Gordon would approve.
