I started at Drexel Burnham in Beverly Hills 1986, picture 4 rookie brokers at the corners of a large desk with one Quotron on a lazy susan in the middle, we'd take turns rotating it when we had a prospect on the line or a client calling for a quote and needed to sound like we knew what we were talking about.
Only the million dollar producers could have one on their desk and one for their Admin Assistants.
I still have a vacuum tube canister with the clothes hanger thing to hold the tickets.
On active volume days we would put a $20 bill in the tube so the wire operator would give us preference in entering trades.
