1899 bob phone 1
PERFORMER Jerry Nelson
DEBUT 1982

The phone is a pay phone on Sesame Street, located in front of the Fix-It Shop. It has a mind of its own in Episode 1663, when it rings on its own and talks to Bob, saying that it's the phone and not anybody else. He offers to give Bob the time, but ends up providing a joke instead. Afterwards, he promises to give the real time, by providing four loud chiming sounds to indicate that it's four o'clock.

The phone returns at the end of the episode, to remind Bob to announce the sponsors.
