Well, I remember when our phone number in Downey, Calif. was Metcalf 555.

Los Angeles was a lot bigger so since the mid 1939s our number was OLympia 8388 and it was later changed to NOrmandy 48388 and when they instituted area codes they made it 213-664-8388.

Ours in Hawaiian Gardens was HA55772.

Hawaiian Gardens has changed since then.
