I vote VCR/VHS. I think VHS produced a warmer, analog picture compared to today’s digital streaming.

VHS looks hideous on newer televisions.
Open reel tape recorders should come back.

Pay phones.

Too many people spend way too much time buried in their phones, accomplishing nothing.

I actually like the way a phone book would lay out things like contractors/repair companies as opposed to whatever a google search gives me.

Interesting choice. I actually used one a few months ago because I had it and I didn't have a regular drill bit big enough to do the job. So, I broke out my Millers Falls breast drill. I also have one of these bad boys hanging on my shop wall:

Man, I really wish TVs had a setting where you could adjust the Picture to look warmer.
