I just registered.  Been talking with Dennis Markham all morning about a W E 554 that I just bought.

I'm going to try and clean it up and get it mounted in my kitchen soon.  I'm sure you'll see me around trolling for info, or asking questions.

Wow, thanks for the warm welcome!

I think it's great what you all are doing.  Preserving a piece of American history!  These phones are beautiful and solid. 

Nothing like the cheap plastic chinese one that I'm throwing away to make room for my "new" one.  :)

Welcome Jeremy! My kitchen phone is a red 554 affectionately called the "hotline'.

haha, nice!

Yeah I think it'll look great once I get it cleaned up.  All of our appliances are black and stainless, and I think this classic phone will look great there with them.


Just looking around these forums makes me want some of the neat phones I've seen.  Maybe it's time I started going to estate sales...   ;D

Hmmm, here I thought PETT was People for the Ethical Treatment of Tofu.

  Tofu? I'd rather put dirt between 2 peices of bread, eat that and wash it down with muddy water.
