Out of the picture since it's not modern enough.

Or maybe its the kind with the dial on the handset.

Man, a buck-thirty for that in the 70's? That'd translate to about 300 in today's dollars. For an answering machine?

More like $500, at least, with all of the double digit inflation back then. $130 in 1973 would fill up the gas tank in your V8 land yacht like 8 times.
