You are also correct about the phone numbers. The two letters represented a word, i.e., LI stood for Livingston, as an example. However, in south Jersey, all the phone numbers were only five digits.



Life was so much simpler way back then . . . or was it??!?


It was simpler. The fact that no one can remember their phone number anymore but I still remember PY1-7524 from 60 years ago. PY stood for Pyramid.
