When I was a kid, most telephones were heavy, clunky things that sat on your Dad’s desk at home (or were firmly attached to the wall), and were robust enough to use for home defense if need be.  We’ve come a long way, baby, and frankly I’m diggin’ the 21st Century.  More natural and man-made disasters, but lower threat of nuclear extinction.

But some folks still have a hankering for them thar Good Old Days, and for those folks, YUBZ is presenting you with some pretty funky, retro and artist handset attachments for your phones.  If these babies don’t satisfy your hankering for some of that ol’ time telephonic religion, well, maybe you need to watch “Matlock” or something.  But in the meantime, surf on over to the YUBZ web site and check them out.  Their available for an MSRP of between $40 and $60 (give or take).

Full information below.
