Answer 1

Ahh yes. A rotary phone. You know my cousins have like three or four of those . They actually use it. Not keep it as an ornament. They're not manufactured anymore. Sorry.  Maybe you can get one on them ebay sites.

Answer 2

It's called a rotary telephone (the number was dialed, not entered).

No, I don't think they're manufactured anymore.  They're still being found in basements and attics and the bedrooms of some elders.
