Old Fashioned Telephone Stand Up Puzzle
« on: October 28, 2011, 06:37:39 pm »
Here's a little gem you might enjoy working on. Some of you might remember the old stand up telephone -- you see them a lot in the old movies (for you young folks). Seemed like a good topic for a stand up puzzle, so here it is. Didn't have time to get the final cut pictured because of family emergency which has slowed me down, but I look forward to some of you perhaps cutting and posting some pictures.

Snagged a copy.  My grandmother had one, it's called a candlestick.  I tried to get the phoneman to give me it when he exchanged it out for a *new* model.  Said he couldn't, had to turn it in. Bummer!!!!!!

Great pattern, thanks for the memories.................Hmmmmmmm wasn't that a song???????   ;D ;D ;D
