There weren't any area codes before the 60's. To call long distance, you had to tell the operator what city and number you were calling. Some of the phone numbers in that book were of the form HArpersville 3C20. They were changed to AC + 7 digits when DDD was introduced. Bruce Nelson Eastman Kodak Co. (standard disclaimers)
