PLEASE \"\"READ FULL ENTIRE \"\" DESCRIPTION & VIEW \"ALL\" PICTURES BEFORE PLACING A offer ON THIS ABSOLUTELY SPECTACULAR LOOKING & GREAT WORKING PHONE. THANK YOU.
PLEASE READ THE THE REST OF THE DESCRIPTION BELOW. Thank youUp for your consideration is this BEAUTIFUL & SPECTACULAR LOOKING 1970\'sRED Bell System ITT (INTERNATIONAL TELEPHONE TELEGRAPH) CLASSIC Rotary Dial desk telephone \"Model 554\" that looks & Feels almost like it came out of the box yesterday. This phone is working well. I recently detailed it for the next lucky owner.
THIS PHONE CASE & HANDSET HAS ITT INSCRIBED ON IT BUT THE (MECHANISM/CHASSIS ASSEMBLY GUTS) POSSIBLY MAY HAVE BEEN MADE/PRODUCED BY WESTERN ELECTRIC FOR \"ITT\". IF YOU LOOK AT & STUDY THE OTHER WESTERN ELECTRIC PHONES I HAVE LISTED AT THIS TIME,THE (MECHANISM/CHASSIS ASSEMBLY GUTS) ON BOTH MECHANISMS (ITT & WE) ARE JUST ABOUT THE SAME OR IDENTICAL QUALITY AS WESTERN ELECTRIC MECHANISM. The RED color is always special on these vintage phones, and it will surely add cheer to your kitchen or any other room. Nothing quite like the rotating sound of a vintage phone in an age when it seems everything around us has gone digital. This telephone is in SUPERB if not EXCELLENT cosmetic condition (MAYBE NOT PERFECT BUT DARN NEXT TO IT) & FANTASTIC working condition, you won’t find the usual 30+ yr accumulation of grime, paint drippings, or gummy stickers on this one that will pass a military white glove test. Careful detailing and polishing of parts included the body, dial, and the handset was given special attention inside and out, so there will be no qualms about using it.
Phone displays with a beautiful gloss as seen in photos with no grime in the usual hiding places. The rotating dial is in excellent working condition, and I was able to get a dial tone on the old phone line here that dials out great and both parties can be heard clearly. TheRED handset is in Great condition. The Sliding adjustable ringer control on the bottom works on incoming calls with that distinctive sound from real brass bells inside.
TheRED coiled Modular handset cord is in Excellent condition. The black modular line cord is in Excellent condition.FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, MODERN \"DIGITAL\" PHONE LINES IN SOME AREAS MIGHT NOT SUPPORT ALL FUNCTIONS OF VINTAGE ROTARY DIAL PHONES THAT DO BEST ON OLD TRADITIONAL LAND LINE SERVICES.This is the real McCoy Bell System ITT product in a cheerful RED color, made in USA to last. I have taken many pictures so you may get a good view at this EXTREMELY nice looking & working vintage telephone.
I REALIZE AM ASKING A PREMIUM PRICE FOR THIS TELEPHONE AS THERE ARE MANY PHONES OUT HERE \"HOWEVER\" THIS ONE LOOKS & FEELS LIKE IT \"ALMOST\" CAME OUT OF THE BOX YESTERDAY. IT IS SPARKLING CLEAN ALL THE WAY AROUND & IN AMAZING LOOKING CONDITION & IT DOES WORK.
I have a few antique vintage radios & items listed on at different times so you may want to take a peek now or in the future to see if there isn\'t anything else that you just can\'t live with or with out:-) To see other items click here See other items
