I love vintage Trimline telephone! I use it every day.

[bigdanbear]

Can you even get a trimline phone? These days?

[stixnatedogg]

@bigdanbear Yes you can. telephones.att.com sells them for $15. You can buy updated models at Target too. As far as stores that continue to sell the Trimline 210, the last remaining descendant of the original Trimline as seen here, Kmart and Best Buy used to sell them.

I have one of those trimline in the closet of our cabin as the power goes out frequently in winter - and stays out for days at a time - and we have to plug the trimline in as the cordless phones in the cabin are worthless during the power outages.

Very stylish and very shapely...the phone that is.

Yep... Trimline! Not Princess!

[queensplazasouth]

Those are Trimline phones. Not Princess.

Beautifully done commercial and evocative of the times while remaining timeless. Great.

Actually this isn't a Princess phone at all. It's a Trimline set! I think the reason for all the girls in this commercial is to make the Trimline look like a "high-style" phone. It was top of the line at that time, being that it was the first phone to have a dial in the handset.

lmao - now I know where the "princess" name comes from! Never put the two and two together! It was a chick phone obviously!
