Huh, I've read about rotary phone locks, but I'd never seen one before. Thanks for sharing this. Even though I work in IT, I'm an anachronistic kinda guy. Here I sit typing away on my laptop, sitting in my easy chair, with a rotary phone on the table next to me. I love the bell ringer, and they have the clearest sound. We've got one hanging in the kitchen too. The house was built in 1951, and to my mind it just made sense to put a rotary phone on the wall. Now I think I have to find myself a rotary phone lock - not because I need to lock my phones, but simply to have one. As an aside, you can dial a rotary with the hook. If I wanted to dial 911, I would pick up the phone, and upon confirming dialtone, depress the hook 9 times, pause, 1 time, pause, 1 time and the call would go through.
