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.
