why did phone numbers in the 1950s have numbers and letters?
OctopusGuy asked:
In watching movies and tv shows from the 1950s and 60s, i notice people seemed to have phone numbers that consisted of letters and numbers- for example, on a 1960 Twilight Zone episode, someone had a phone number of ‘trafalgar 1948′. What does that mean?
When did phone numbers drop the use of letters?
