Hi I had a couple of these phones for about 20 years the 20AL and the wood wall phone the rest of the phones in the last 6 months really addicted to collecting. I Like the pre 50s Phone the odd shaped heavy old phones most of my phones are metal. Hopping to add a WE Pay Phone with Stan's coin controller to it. By next year. I have a Panasonic KX-TA824 with 6 Co line witch three of them are used and 16 extensions expandable to 24. As I am getting the funds and organized I am hooking them all up
Phone that I am presently looking for are. If you have a spare of one of these. Let me know. and Maybe I can afford it.

Looking a little closer to your collection (thus far...). I see a lot of my collection there. I try to get at least one and hopefully several from each decade. I'm trying to document, as best I can, over a century of telephony. It's a lot of fun and looks like you are well on your way. Keep us posted, we like pictures. :D
