This week I was able to get 2 new phones. With these 2 new phones I should have reached the the number of 90 unique models in my collection. Another milestone. However… back on 89 again. 🙁

Not sure if I will ever reach the magical 100 but of course that would be something special… Most friends think I am crazy. It is getting a bit complex now to get models I do not have yet, but I have said that before ;-). It is so strange that this year I got 5 new phones. That didn’t happen the last 5 years.

The pictures in this preview may not say much but I can tell you it is a Touch Tone and a Nichco metallic. Both I did not have in my collection yet.

You can see the Touch Tone misses a part, but I have this dial plate and spring in my stock. So there is no worry on that. Both Ericofons are in pretty good shape as I could observe from the pictures. But buying online is always a risk of course.

So please come back for more information and some nice pictures soon. They are both quite photogenic. On the other hand… which Ericofon isn’t?

Update 25/10/2024:

Here’s the however part: The expected Princess Pink Touch Tone turned out to be a Petal Pink Touch Tone in the end. Today I received it and to be honest I was a bit disappointed. The revenge of the Princess was fired back on me, not on the Petal rival. Good thing is that it is in perfect shape, better than the one I already had. But… not a Princess. So I have replaced my old Petal Pink Touch Tone. After all it brings a bit of extra. And, it also came with the original box and the original technical electric schema drawing.

Still waiting for the Nichco to arrive.

Update 26/10/2024:

Here’s an update on the Nichco metallic Ericofon that I promised. It arrived today and luckily it was as I hoped it would be.

Fabulous color Purple from the series of Nichco painted metallic series. A color that is so different from the rest of the palette in the cabinet. Perfectly painted, not a single scratch 🙂
