In the 70s in Richardson, a suburb of Dallas, TX, my friend's family had a
party line phone.  I had to call home once and kept interrupting someone's
conversation.  Even in this century my Grandparents had a similar type
phone.  They lived out in the country and their phone would ring two shorts
and a long for them.  Any other types of rings were calls for other people
in the area.  I don't know if that was a true party line as I don't think
you could hear other people's conversations.  Too bad, I think my
Grandparents might have liked to.
