Rare as hens teeth red GPO Diakon 200 series dated 1938

This is a very rare telephone and is made from the early acrylic material Diakon. It is dated 1938 and has been totally stripped down and rebuilt after each part has been cleaned and polished. It is fitted with a small internal bell using a special bracket I have made to allow it to be removed with no damage at all to the telephone. It is fully converted and ready to plug in and go on any line that allows pulse dialling such as BT Virgin etc. Not TalkTalk. To run on any network click on the pulse to tone option in checkout. This one is a bargain price because it has a light fade to to the colour and I have replaced the cradle as it had broken. This matches perfectly in colour but not Diakon. Take a look at the pictures and video to see what a wonderful telephone this very rare telephone is. A great opportunity to get your hands a rare and beautiful telephone at a very reasonable price. I have fitted this with a very best quality hand plaited braided handset cord, an electronic microphone, a 1950s receiver, a GPO specification round plastic line in cord and new GPO specification feet. It has a genuine GPO dial label fitted and you can have a dial label made up with your own information at no extra charge.
