Video Description:

Hello guys and welcome back to Mystery Scoop. Did you know that in the past, to connect to a call, you would have to go through a female switchboard operator. Since the invention of the telephone in the 1890s, telephone switchboards were an essential component of the communication network, used to establish connections between two telephones in two distant places. In the early days of 20th century the telephone switchboards were, in large, operated manually by switchboard operators. They were usually women, but were gradually being replaced by automated switching systems. The system did not guarantee anonymity, and your phone calls could also be listened to. In this collection we have put together vintage photos showing various telephone switchboard rooms where women operated and greeted users with their friendly voice. Lets check it out. Please note photos have been colorized using A.I. technology for ambience purposes only and it may not be historically accurate. ---
