    Description

    Here is an ivory 302 that I saved.  The plastic shell had been destroyed and the cords were rotted beyond use.  I couldn't find any ivory plastic shells, so I purchased an old Hammer-finish metal one and painted it ivory, replaced the cords - line cord is 25 feet, and replaced both the transmitter and receiver capsules, as the originals were very weak.  The caps have hairlines.  This phone is dated 4-52-1.  It has a Red Stripe ringer dated 4-52-1, network is dated 2-52, has a 6A dial assembly that is 1953, so it probably is not original to this phone, the replacement receiver capsule is dated 5-67, the replacement transmitter is dated 10-72, and the handset has a 52 stamped in red in it.  This is a perfectly functioning phone that works great in every way and displays great as well.  Only .00.
