I've been watching the Hardy Boys mystery series on HULU, filmed in Canada with lots of Northern electric sets, of all styles. Contempra wall set, NE payphones even a few desk sets I've not seen before.
If you get Hulu check it out it's cool to see all sorts of phones.

Not heard of this show so checked out the trailer, looks like it could be worth a watch (if it is aired on any UK/EU freesat channels).

Here's the link to the trailer ( is that meant to be an English accent...  :o )

It's only one season, but if you like mysteries this is pretty good. I've watched it a few times already and pick up on a bit more every time I watch.
And I've seen a few phones I've not seen before and that too is cool.

Well I've been watching and rewatching these episodes. And I see a scene where the "tall guy"(6'11)
Uses a 2500, that looks from a side angle that has been modular but has a hardwired cord on the back as well as the handset.
Seems odd, but perhaps they are trying to maintain a circa? Like maybe older phones were used prior to 75, 79 era?
But I have seen several NE Centurian sets touch tone, and a NE(?) 236 three slot, a odd mix of 500 sets, brown with ivory handset caps, a brown with green caps things like that. Just seems odd they would have a mixture of parts old new colors etc.
