Bio
The Island Telephone was a primitive communication device created by the Professor that Gilligan and Mary Ann used to contact civilization through the telephone cable that washed up on the island. Modeled after the modern telephone, the device had no precise dialing mechanism for contacting specific parties, instead resorting to picking out seemingly random phone numbers within the telephone network. Through this device, Gilligan and Mary Ann reached a St. Louis Theater matron, an arguing couple named Larry and Sybil, an unidentified passionate couple and a San Diego Telephone Operator who asked for five cents before calling them kooks and hanging up. The telephone was possibly washed out to sea with the storm that dragged the cable back out to sea.
