How to use real vintage phones on your cell phone line
Steam Punk PC's... lovely however, not my style sad to say.

What sparked your fascination with the "Golden Era"?
Quite simple... the music. Early on I decided to find a type of music that I liked other than what my folks listened to most of my years growing up. It was the early 90s and I came a crossed an oldies station. I began a sincere interest and appreciation for the hits of the 50s. My...- Forgotten Man
