The prefix here was BR, not sure if that was the "exchange" or what you call it, the numbers were shorter. There is an old grocery store, still in business down the road one of the brothers was a decorated WWII army veteran, which most of us did not know until he passed away, and his obituary published, the sign over the old store, which sells mostly vegetables, garden plants, flowers and some other things, still has the old number on it starting with the letters AS-____ don't recall the 4 digits after.

The party lines were prevalent in the rural areas around here I'll bet until the early 80's, my grandmother had one over in the nearby mountains, I can recall using that line, knowing anyone could listen in.

I found a 1966-1967 phone book in a closet in our old house before it was demolished, the yellow pages are interesting, lots of those old numbers in it too.
