There were a few different red phones used in the series, but this was one of the early ones. It's on Ebay for $5

How many different types of red phones did they use for the Robin Masters line? In J. 'Digger' Doyle it was a red Western Electric Model 2500. That's also the model of Rick's phone BTW; the ITT versions like on eBay are knockoffs (or perhaps licensed copies; but Western Electric is the real deal).

I seem to remember the Robin Masters line phone being a red Western Electric Trimline at some point too.

Real Western Electric phones tend to sell for more than the knockoffs though.
