Here is one other
A few more
some more
I recently went to the NW's Largest garage and vintage sale in Vancouver, WA USA and tried to sell some phones. I took about 45 phones with me and sold only 2 that day. It was less than a break even situation when factoring the costs alone , let alone the time involved.
Here are couple of Pics as I never have had so many phones simultaneously out of their storage buckets.
If anyone sees any they like , let me know , as I have far too many phones.

How did your "Chocolate Donut" phone get gray buttons? Normally, those have white buttons.
I can not stand having YELLOW keys and they were way too yellowed, so I replaced the keypad, with what I had until I het a better match! I think I have two of those BTW and one I have not touched.
