Used on the TV show The Green Hornet starring Van Williams and Bruce Lee.

So in the 1960s it made a phone sound like a modern cell phone with a poor signal.

Why does the bartender cover the mouthpiece of the phone?

[@r0bw00d]

Probably to keep the Green Hornet from hearing something or someone in the background. I haven't seen the episode, so I can't say for sure.

So, the phone scrambler is just a little rotating fan that distorts the voice by speaking through it, the way kids make a "robot" voice?!

[@theotherwalt]

It is the fancy color scheme that distorts the voice.
