Description: About this item: This phone is an original Western electric 500 desk telephone from the 1960's and 1970's. It is fully restored with new cords and a reproduction dial card in the finger wheel. This phone is ready to plug in and use with no additional wiring or adapters.Hard of Hearing: I do have special handsets available for the hard of hearing. These are original Western Electric G8 handsets that were designed specifically to go with Western Electric telephones. The quality and clarity of these handsets can't be beat. Send me a message after you purchase the phone and I will set up a special listing to purchase the upgrade. Condition: All of the phones I sell are 100% original vintage phones. The only modern parts you will find on my phones are cords and dial cards.All of the phones I sell are refurbished to look and work like new. This includes cleaning and lubricating dials, updating wiring, and full function testing before shipping. Each phone gets a new handset cord and comes with a new line cord for plugging it into the wall. All plastics and Bakelite are buffed to a high shine. In the case of discolored phones, the parts are sent in for professional painting using the same materials and process the phone company used when refurbishing phones. All phones are adapted for modular use, so all you have to do is plug the phone in and use it. Wall phones come with a modern modular back, ready to snap onto the wall. About Digital Dialing: If you have digital phone service, you will probably be unable to dial out with this phone. This is correctable by building a digital converter into the phone. With this device installed you will be able to use this phone on any digital system. You will even be able to use # and *. This extra installation is $65. If you want this option, message me before paying and I will add it to the invoice. Shipping: I ship within 48 hours of payment. I combine phones to save on shipping. If you buy them separately, I'll refund back the difference. The phones are well packed to protect them during shipping.
