This is one of the true classics of telephony: popularly known as the "Eiffel Tower" in America, "Coffee Grinder" in Australia and "Skeleton" in the UK and Australia.. It was manufactured in Stockholm,
Sweden by L. M. Ericsson, in the period 1892 – 1929 and numbered the AC110, AC120, or AC140 for slight component variations.This model has been used almost all over the world and nearly a million were made. Its big popularity resulted in the fact that in Denmark alone there were two factories that made imitations and it was extensively copied worldwide. Almost all Scandinavian telephone companies used the "Eiffel-Tower" telephone.
The beautiful design of the set and relative availability are good reasons why it is a highly regarded collector's item today.
