Feb 6th, 2017: Red Phone
Wow, a red phone. It's pretty old, beat up, but it must have belonged to somebody in
charge, like the Madam at some whorehouse, or a despot third world Dictator. Let's check it for markings... it's inscribed Adolf Hitler, a Nazi eagle and a swastika. Ok, those are good clues. It was made to be carried in a travel case, found in the Fuhrerbunker by the Russians, who gifted it to Montgomery's Deputy Chief Signals Officer . Quote:

I wonder if he ever received spam marketing calls.
Anyhow, it sold for £195,000 (c.$240,000) but doubts have been cast upon its provenance. Take your pick: Hitler's phone fake
