This is comic number 1072. It was posted on June 22, 2012.
Image text: Hey, man, the 1670s called. They were like 'Wherefore this demonic inſtrument? By what ſorcery does it produce ſuch ſounds?"
This is another take on the common insult "<insert some year> called and they want their shirt/hat/software/whatever back". Randall has used this joke before in the comic "2009 Called".
In this case, this one is funny because someone in the 70s would not know how to leave a voicemail because answering machines and especially voicemail had not been invented yet. (I do enjoy the 70s guy with the hair and the bellbottom pants and no shirt. The pants the 70s guy is wearing are called "bellbottoms" and were in style in the 70s. They are called this because they are considerably wider at the bottom creating a sort of "bell" at the "bottom" of the pants.)
