It's just like a normal 'phone. Follow the lead, you can just make out the top of the handset on the side facing away from the camera.

Ima Dumas. I see now. I thought the cord from receiver to handset was a rope for carrying it.:lol2

Also, looks (from this stolen Flickr pic) like the bells are turned upside down, that threw me, too.

My mind gets a grip on things like this and won't let go sometimes. Thanks for straightening me out.

Chris those are awesome!

They are great pictures. This is what's great about the internet. Now people wanting to research Julia Child in WWII can see these.

FIFY.

The bells are inverted to function as ash trays.

BrianR · 08-24-2011, 12:33 AM

Shed construction begins tomorrow. Pictures will be taken this time.

Stay tuned!

BrianR · 08-24-2011, 05:01 PM

I do NOT believe this! It hasn't rained in months. So I get to laying the foundation and it bloody well RAINS!

Now it's too hot and humid to work. Oh well, tomorrow's another day!

Gravdigr · 08-26-2011, 02:06 PM

Here's a pic of what I did a few days ago...the rock is almost big as a golf ball.

What a python, what an anaconda, what an --- inchworm?

classicman · 08-27-2011, 02:45 PM

Thats not a rock, that's a meteorite.

footfootfoot · 08-27-2011, 02:53 PM

That's not a python anaconda inchworm, that's an Alien tentacle!

You can't expect such a classy dame, that's seen the Elephant, to go back to the farm.

Wait, MN? When I saw the first picture, I thought she had a beautiful smile that reminded me of Betty White. Rose Nylund was patterned after your Mom?

This stuff should be in the National Archives or Smithsonian. Antiques Road show would call them, "National Treasures", and I'd wholeheartedly agree.
Thanks a million for sharing them.
