- Dialing 1 through zero on an old Western Electric model 500 rotary telephone. I've made this sound a free download at freesound.org/people/mycompasstv . To allow sound editors to select the dialed numbers they want to use, I've paused after dialing each number. Enjoy!
The Western Electric model 500 telephone series was a classic rotary black phone and the standard domestic desk telephone set issued by the Bell System in North America from 1950 through the 1984 Bell System divestiture.
Millions of model 500-series phones were produced and were present in most homes in North America. Many are still in use today because of their durability and ample availability. Its modular construction compared to previous types simplified manufacture and repair, and facilitated a large number of variants with added features. In Canada the same model 500 was manufactured by Bell Northern Telecom.
For the initial years, from 1950 to 1953, the 500 was available only in black with a metal finger wheel. In 1954, color telephone sets were available in ivory, green, dark gray, red, brown, beige, yellow, and blue. Gray, blue, yellow, and red sets were initially assembled with black dials, until the colored parts became available by 1955. So called two-tone color varieties were available, which consisted of a black set having the housing substituted with a color plastic part. They were offered as an attractive color combination for a reduced fee from the price of a full color telephone. In 1957, gray, blue, beige, and brown sets were replaced with lighter pastel hues in light gray, aqua blue, light beige, white, and pink colors. Issuance of brown sets, however, continued for multi-line business sets for several years. Turquoise sets were added in 1964, and several colors, including pink and light gray, were discontinued in the late 1960s.
By 1955, all color 500s were produced with clear finger wheels, while black sets retained the metal finger wheel until about 1964, when a new dial design was released. Now vintage, this mid century modern MCM phone also known as a landline is my favorite telephone.
The distinct ringing bells sound was created by two brass bells and a striker, later replaced replaced by cheaper electronic ringtones.

This gave my grandma massive nostalgia
LOL, Thanks for commenting!
This is satisfying for some reason.
Thanks for commenting!
@@mycompasstv And thanks for making this video.
Good memories, but in my house we had minutes to talk on the phone, so when dialing we pulled the dial back quickly!, for speed dialing 😂😎👍
Oddly relaxing...
Yes it is. Thanks for commenting Chris.
You, sir, are a saint.
Golly... shucks.... thanks. LOL
Totally cool!
Thanks Ian.
Love this.
Thanks for commenting.
I love those.
😀
I dont know why but I was laughing the whole time watching this...I guess when I was remembering as a kid when I was trying to rush call a friend.. the the amount of movement in the arm to call someone back then. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 and don't let it be a word you had to spell cause if you mess up you gotta start all over!! 🤣🤣😄🤣
I know that feeling, thanks for commenting James. 😀
I love this, thank you!
😀
Lovely sound
Now I am busy helping my neighbors
😇
Ah 80s kids nostalgia
50s, 60s, 70s, & 80s nostalgia. Thanks for commenting Spidergirl79.

I have the same model .Mine is in a brown colour. .
Cool 😀
Thank u
u are most welcome. 😀
This is cool 😎
🐻❄ Thanks 😃
@@mycompasstv no problem
The main phone in our house was like this, even in the early 90's.
Hey, this is still my main phone. 🦖🤓😀
At the tone, the time will be,
Six.
Twenty-six.
And thirty seconds.
Beep- r-r-r-r-r-r.....
I remember that too. 😄
Would have been much better if you'd picked up the dang receiver so we could hear what it sounded like ON THE PHONE.
Thanks for commenting. The dang receiver pick up is here: czcams.com/video/IivTCX69f_E/video.html 😀
I'll never forget a most hilarious incident I had with one of these way back in the year 2000, when an uncle of mine had one, which I mistook for an "antique", with not knowing the phone was actually still working! Needless to say it was bad, but easily could have been much worse when my aunt (who was my uncle's sister) picked up the phone around five seconds after I dialed a certain emergency number too! 🤣(L.M.A.O.!)
Funny stuff. Thanks for commenting freakyfornash. 😁
@@mycompasstv I'll never forget that as long as I live! As you can guess, the number was 911 too! I wondered what it would be like to have to dial that number on this kind of phone (which I wasn't even totally sure how to use correctly), while not being aware it was working! Had if my aunt not answered the kitchen phone, the cops obviously would have come to the house, and can only imagine what that would have been like too! 😂
@@freakyfornash It's good you didn't inadvertently dial a wrong number and forget to return the handset to the cradle. That would have been an expensive call! 😃
@@mycompasstv Yeah, but dialing 911 was bad enough, with what could have happened in that case though! I was just testing the phone, and obviously it worked (unfortunately) too! 😆XD
Mine sounded different, had a sound similar to the ringing when the dialing pad was moving
Hey Björn, thanks for commenting.
I would like one of those but I guess it's expensive
There's millions of these phones still in use in North America and can be found for a few dollars at a garage sale or less than $30 on ebay. Thanks for commenting Goldenenginner.
Get a busy signal? Use the redial - your finger...all...over...again.
Thanks for commenting Pappy.
JUST SAVE MY ASS, THX you're the dude!!
Glad I could help.
I've made this sound available as a free download at freesound.org

@@matrix-san4147 Thanks for commenting!
416? Toronto Canada Area Code? :P
BINGO!
Sound similar to come together.
Thanks for commenting.
Aww man I thought it would be like 1:36 In ROTARY DIAL by GHOST.
😀
Lift the handset first
Yes that's true, and kind of funny. If the handset is not on the cradle, my dialing recording will be ruined because of the recording message: "Please hang up and dial your number again... please hang up this is a recording". BTW after 74,000 views you are the first commentor to mention this, so well done and Cheers! 😀 Thanks for commenting!

😀
My friend has one of these and she wants to dial on it but the circle thing is not on 7.6.5.4
Someone help
That's funny. Thanks for commenting, maybe someone can help.
Where is the sound you heard in your ear after you dialed? It was a different ring; a throaty gargling sound; not a digital ring.
I'll leave it to you to record that sound. Thanks for commenting. 🥸
@@mycompasstv I haven't heard it in over forty years. Still hoping to find it on here somewhere.
@@UrbanGardeningWithD.A.Hanks14 Maybe some day I'll record it.😎

Kha milagya aisa phone ji plz tell me
This phone is not rare. Thanks for commenting.
how do you use these?
That's an ancient secret. 😆
Dear Child, you dial the phone numbers....that would require you to know and remember them first. Today we hit dial, and don't always remember today!!
