My first Ericofon

[wds]

Picked up my first Ericofon.  Advertised as white, but it's definitely an ivory.  I didn't realize until I took it apart that they don't have ringers in them?  It was dirty when I got it, but cleaned up real nice, then hit it with the novus and the buffer.  It needs the number card on the dial, but otherwise seems perfect.  Is this a date stamp on the inside of the base?

Nice one, my first one was a lot like that.

Yep, they didn't come with ringers, though some did, I think they are called "worblers."

Some didn't have ringers, but some had "electronic tone signals." (See ad)

That looks very nice.  I think that it is the "Candle Glow" color.  Now you will have to get all of the colors   I have about ten of them.

Nice one.

And I think some of them had nothing in them, no ringer, buzzer, warbler or whatever.

And yes, that is a date stamp. Typical Ericsson, weeknumber and year.
