So I collect telephones.
I'll often catch stuff like this when watching period-set movies or TV shows.
Mad Men deserves credit though - in six years they made one mistake - they had a set with a modular plug in it at Don's house (and it wasn't even a modular plug, it was an insert that could be replaced with a modular one on a G-Type handset).

- tokai 9y agoThe phrase was desiminated my McLean in his 1964 publication "understanding media". As I understand Mad Men takes place during the 60s, so there is no mistake there.
