The bakery set was nice, I was inspired by the wooden figure with a red poof and bun holding a tray that looks like Mrs. Garrett

But, it was the set from seasons 5 and 6 (though charred beyond belief), so you're still on topic via loophole.

Guess I'd forgotten about that old-timey phone. Not sure how practical that was, but cool that they used it. How'd they call anyone using Klondike numbers? Did they have to dial the operator for connections? (Funny story: up until the mid-1980s in my town, you could still just dial five numbers when making a local call!)

I'm a grown man and you've got me feeling like a
