The very familiar 3-slot style payphone was first introduced in the 1950’s and remained virtually unchanged until 1965. This appropriately christened “prepay-style pay station” will take you back to the days of old fashioned phone booths and 10-cent phone calls. Believe it or not, its predecessor was a post pay-style phone that actually allowed the caller to place their call and then pay once finished. While you don’t have to pay for your calls with this Crosley replica, you will enjoy the functional coin slots complete with Crosley jingle as your money is deposited into the coin bank in the base of the unit.

Preface: 

I was recently revisiting the January 2010 issue of Game Room magazine, and I noticed (on page 35) a captivating photograph of one gentleman's notion of a "fifties/sixties" retro game room featuring pinball machines; Coca-cola and A & W signs, and a vintage... Read full review »

Pros Cheap, won't erase messages when the power goes out
Cons Static, illogical controls, static . . . did I mention static?
Recommended it? No

Mine was to think that at the price this pair of phones with an answering machine... Read full review »

Pros None
Cons I don't know where to start
Recommended it? No

Not only is there more static than ever, you cannot turn the volume loud enough to hear over the static. Whenever telemarketers call and refuse to leave a message, it causes the phone to stay busy all day long, completely eliminating the point of an answering machine in the first place. I hate this...
