Tens of thousands of these phones were destroyed - they are now rare - with ones in as good condition as this - even rarer

This phone has a refurbished plastic phone shell, the handpiece and curly cord are refurbished. The electronics have been refurbished. the handpiece and case has been buffed, but still has some fine scratches and sun fading, however its good for another 30 years. It looks fantastic for a 40 year old telephone. It has a recall button on the bottom right side of the phone. This button was used to transfer calls internally within a business that operated a PABX . The button will not do anything on normal telephone lines.

This is not a junky phone like those being sold on eBay, or sitting in someone's shed, or bought at a garage sale - this is a quality telephone.
