That depends on the level of antiquity.
If you are referring to a telephone with a rotary dial, you pick up the receiver, make sure you have a dial tone, then for each digit you stick your finger in the hole in the dial next to the digit, turn the dial clockwise until your finger hits the end stop, then remove your finger and wait for the dial to rotate counterclockwise (anticlockwise) until it returns to its original position.
Then there are the REALLY antique phones which I've never even seen except in old movies and TV shows. You remove the ear piece from its hook and turn the crank a couple of revolutions to ring the telephone operator. When the operator responds you tell her (it was almost always a her) the name or phone number you want, and she connects you.
