well people didn,t really have a phone in their home untill the 20,s but the telephone tables were popular mostly after the 2nd world war. my parents had one when I was little, in the early 60,s but it was made sometime in the 50,s. hope this helps.
I agree with the other answer.
I was a kid in the ’50s, and little metal phone tables were in every house. Back then there was only one phone in a house, so it had a prominent spot all by itself. After people started getting “extension” phones, they realized they could put them on the wall, night stands, and so on.
The phone jack was almost always in the hall.
