It evokes 1950s social culture in the US.The case is made of chromed plastic and has all the functionality of the original type of down to the coin box- no you can get your money back on this one.There is an authentic ringer tone and the appealing and expected solid chink as the coins drop into the box."Any one got a quarter,or even a dime?" I hear you ask.The coin collection box is just a money box.The phone is a simple plug-in to a standard landline connection.
The wall phone will appeal to anyone a retro feel for the '50s Hollywood film images you can see real or imagined.It's a talking point!A fun thing that actually works as a phone today.
I particularly like its solid look and the anticipation of the coin going in and the rewarding sound as it hits the spot.Every private eye's dream implement.
