Love that board shot!

Also, a reminder that not everything needs to be mac or even computer related - as evidenced by some posting older audio equipment! Only 3 weeks to go til the entry window closes, folks!

Or, in my case, old film cameras...

As much as I'd like to include one of my Macs, I think I have to go for this gem. It's a 1950's vintage telephone from Ericsson - the Ericofon, or colloquially known as the "Cobra" for obvious reasons. In the early runs these were available in 18 different colours, but by the end of the 50's the colours were reduced down to 8 (interestingly never available in black). The classic styling has seen these used in many period movies etc, and as pieces of art in museums (including MOMA).

In case you're wondering the rotary dial is on the base of the unit...

Ahmmmm... well, I didn't check the deadline, just posted my pictures... I've seen right now the deadline was 31st August.

Maybe, if possible, close/lock the thread to prevent new posts.
