Our ring was a long and two shorts. Number was MI 3 1508. We were told the MI was for the exchange in Mitchell Indiana which seemed a long ways off to us hillbillies in central Pennsylvania. The phone hung on a wall in the living room. Todays youth would be mortified at the lack of and impossibility of privacy.

We were lucky though, for most of the year we only had one other party on the line. Can't remember what their ring was.
