I have the original pay phone in the same style in my kitchen. I am not sure what year it is fun, but it looks almost the same as this one.

The original? That’s great! I like these old phones. So much character.

I got so pissed off when my old Nokia 3310 finally died. Every new phone i’ve had is a piece of crap, the battery always dies in an instant. Bring back good old Snake in the games!
