Keep the ballerina , loose the phone .
Why do I say this ? , as one who lived through the 1960s as a VERY electronics interested young man , I can tell you with all certainty that no house I was ever in had the phone sitting on the TV like that . The ballerina , sure , , , , , , and a set of rabbit ears (UHF converter too ) with perhaps some other favorite keepsake , but never the phone .

I have that exact phone... Always thought they were cool but every one I came across was a C-note... until I found one for $5.

The console in question is a Philips, made in Brasil.
The cabinet style is a little different to the european versions, which differs from european country to european country, too. Regards, TV-Collector
