This is a beautiful example. It has been totally stripped down and rebuilt after each part has been cleaned and polished. The handset and base are both marked 1955. This telephone has a genuine GPO No10 dial with a genuine enamel faced figure dial face. If you want it changed to a perfect plastic alpha numeric I will do this free of charge if you add to the notes to us on checking out. It is fitted with a very best all British manufactured hand plaited braided handset cord and a GPO specification round plastic ivory line in cord with a UK telephone plug socket. I have also fitted an electronic microphone to bring the sound quality up to modern standards. This model was designed to be fitted to a GPO No 26 bell set and so had no internal bell. I have fitted a small bell inside that gives a very pleasant ring but not very loud. Ideal for a bedroom or in a sitting room. I can make a dial label with your information at no extra charge.
