So the next question is: What is that on the wall inside the arch above her head? Another phone?

A Model 1 Picturephone?

John, did you use the same dot for the Yellow Doughnut Phone in the cabinet in the far back to the left and the Ivory Celebrity Phone just in front of it? In that case, the count could be brought up to 52 or 53 now!

I believe the phone behind the lampshade is a country-style wall phone (shortened version of the phone above it) and it would be wide enough to look like 2 phones.

Christian,

You are correct, there are two phones under one dot.

The hardest thing to do is count your own phones.

Oh so true.

A couple times a year my wife and count our collections.  We try to only count the ones on display, not the ones in storage or waiting repairs. So my phones are around 235 and her Basset Hounds are over 2000.
