Red Rotary Dial Phone - 802 made by PMG / Telecom refurbished

Vintage Retro Rotary Dial Red Phone refurbished - in very rare Red colour

This Telephone has a new dial label (blank). This was the standard telephone in Australian homes during the 1960's and 70's. Telecom code was 802 ACF Laquer Red

It has a brown line cord.

Tens of thousands of these phones were destroyed - they are now rare - with ones in as good condition as this - even rarer

This phone has a refurbished plastic phone shell, the electronics have been refurbished -it has a new bell set and a replacement dial- its good for another 30 years. It has been buffed and polished, but still has some fine surface scratching, and marks, as you would expect from a 40 year old telephone. It also has a small chip at the rear of the phone where the phone cord connects (see lower photo).

This is not a junky phone like those being sold on eBay, or sitting in someone's shed, or bought at a garage sale - this is a quality telephone.

Dials decadic, it will not dial DTMF tones that you use for voicemail/call centres etc. However it dials telephone numbers fine, information on decadic here.

This phone has been refurbished . The Red telephone comes with a standard telecom 605 plug you may need an adaptor here or other adaptors here , you may need an ADSL filter, information on ADSL with retro phones here)
