Now this is a very cool Item ! It is a Telemania telephone of Elvis presley and as you can see it has a serial number which makes it a collector piece.
What is really cool about this piece is that when the phone rings , Elvis's hips start to shake left to right , and JailHouse Rock starts to play ! Very cool. The phone however is one of the older style wired phones because they didnt have cell phones and wireless back in the day.
I have the exact model as above and was interested as to it's value
Any time you have a seven digit serial number the value is low.....just saying.....
how much would it be worth there is no serial number on mine and looks just like the above
Agree with pop. 7 digit serial # is hardly "limited edition".
"Limited Edition", "Collectable", "Rare" are all tags used to create the perception that an item is desirable and will increase in value over time.
For the most part ALL of these modern collectables are worthless as collector items.
If I wanted one (I do NOT), I'd search ebay and wait for a $5 one to appear. Base on ebay's closed auctions/ sales, these run from about $5- $50:
