Oak telephone booth in excellent condition. This booth was purchased in central Illinois about 10 years ago. Supposedly came from a Drug Store and was dated to 1919. There is no authentication for this. The doors contain beveled glass windows and there is no damage to the exterior, simply normal wear and tear.
The inside has a light in the ceiling. The wiring and door switch is in place although I have not in use. The inside of the booth still has the original tin (bumpy) siding all in good condition.
The phone is estimated to be from the 1950's.and is stamped "Automatic Electric Company". It is coin operated (5, 10, 25¢) and the phone is complete. The paper label on the phone reads *The New England Telephone and Telegraph Company, Boston". I have not tried to hook up the phone although it appears everything is all there.
Price $2200
