Some culture for the weekend edition. Meet the VoiceSilenceron Telephone, a blast from the past, a nifty gadget for the sophisticated gentry that doesn’t want anybody to listen to their “dead-serious” conversation.

Here’s the pitch: “Your telephone conversation can be made inaudible to others in the same room if the phone is equipped with a new mouthpiece that prevents sound from escaping. It is easily attached to any hand instrument and fits snugly around the speaker’s lips. There is no distortion of the voice. Part of the midget “telephone booth” telescopes to fit the standard cradle phone.”

Have we made something better than this? You can answer in secret. Email us: toluna@gmx.net
