Description: In the mid 1970's, people started to rebel against the phone company and it's boring selection of telephones. Western Electric came out with a series of decorator phones in what they dubbed the "Design Line" series. The Sculptura was one of the designs. It was offered in white, yellow, and brown, a rather boring selection by today's tastes, but if you lived in the 70's, you know everything was all about earth tones. Remember Harvest Gold appliances? This phone is the original brown plastic color. I've taken the phone apart and buffed the plastics to a high shine. I then reassemble the phone and repair and update wiring, add a polarity guard, clean and tune the keypad, and add a new handset cord. The phone also comes with a new line cord so it's all ready to plug in and use. It looks and works like brand new. The ringer in this phone *can* be turned all the way off. There are a lot of Western Electric ringers that only have a low volume, this one, thankfully, allows you to turn the ringer all the way off. Condition: All of the phones I sell are refurbished to look and work like new. This includes cleaning and lubricating dials, cleaning contacts on TouchTone keypads, updating wiring. All phones are adapted for modular use, so all you have to do is plug the phone in and use it. The exterior of plastic and Bakelite phones are polished to a high polish using commercial buffing equipment. In the case of age discolored plastic phones, I have them repainted at a professional paint shop using the same materials and methods used by the phone company for a very durable, high shine. 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 for purchase instructions. 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.
