    Description

    Here is a  RARE Vintage Western Electric 3 slot payphone 1234G-3 in Beige  It has a 10 key Touch Tone keypad. It was made for a short time between 1964 and 1965. All parts are stamped 1965 except for the subset
    It was introduced in 1964 at the New York World's Fair. Manufacturing stopped when the single slot payphone went into production. The Western Electric 10 button 1234G was the only Touch Tone 3 slot that they ever manufactured. Very few original ones exist especially in  this condition. This s not a repaint . This is original paint . Its just in exceptional condition
    The pictures show the condition. It is as removed from service and probably hung where it had next to little use.  Maybe in a pharmacy or some place like that.     This is mounted to a back board with its original 685 subset in beige . I cleaned this up and repainted the back board as it had weathered .  I also re-chromed  the chrome vault door as it started to have pitting.  And I spent several days cleaning up with Novus .
    There is no doubt in my mind that all you need is a line cord hooked up and you could use this as a home phone . Or hook up a payphone controller to this payphone so it works off coins.
    Will Trade and pay cash for a  50A or 102 payphone that is 100% original if you have one to part with
