Caption contest: Vintage photo of young lady on the telephone


I don't really have anything to write about this neat vintage photograph (1960s?) of a young lady posing with a telephone receiver in her hand. There is zero information on the back of the photo, which I came across at a flea market.

So I thought I'd turn it over to you for a caption contest!

Post your funniest suggestions in the comments section below, along with your name. The winner, as selected by yours truly, will receive a fine assortment of groovy ephemera.

  2. Fair warning, folks. Justin has set the bar VERY high with his submission. You're going to have to bring your A game to top that one. Also, I might change the prize. I'm going to send Justin a lot of pudding.

    1. Thanks! The modified prize sounds good to me as long as the pudding itself isn't ephemera.

  3. The phone looks European, so the caption should be submitted in a foreign language.

  9. In a moment later to be lost to history, Wendy Watson asked the famous inventor if he would like to “chat” or order a pizza.
