Just showing them off, but also open to members if they are interested in buying.
Again each phone has NOS new internal receiver elements (microphone and speaker in handset) period correct NOS dials and model correct. This is exactly how you would have had this phone if bought (or rented,) in the time period.
All are converted to ring, receive, and dial out on modern line voltage (not a super easy task) and are in original untouched case finish. First 2 are bake-lite, 3rd is metal.
The dials alone in these are worth $70+ and handsets even more.
They are also heavy as hell, perfect for "whacking out" a scurvy shyster BASTARD if need be

IMHO I would try to sell them to an interior decorator. I have not had a phone line in my house and I built it 8 years ago. Too bad you do not have the old type of crank phones. Google the Tucker Telephone.

I have wall phones, desk phones etc.
My phone in kitchen is a 1934 "mail box" western electric
I got a few listed on eBay and CL. Mainlybi just wanted to show off one of my passions here. I'm not all about CBD, weights and guns.
I like antiques and pit bulls as well. Lol
