Black GPO 312L Telephone with Drawer

This is a beautiful example of a GPO 312L with drawer. The call exchange button would have been used on a shared line and is now just for show. The handset is dated 1946. It has been stripped down and rebuilt after each part has been cleaned and polished. The dial has also been rebuilt and the contacts cleaned and tested. Then set up on a special line simulator to allow to work on both BT and cable networks. I have fitted a genuine GPO braided cord in perfect condition that I cut from a reel from the 1950s and terminated myself. I have fitted an electronic microphone and best quality D shape plastic line in with a UK telephone plug socket. Please note that these are genuine GPO telephones from the 1950s and although I restore to the highest of standards they have been in use for over 60 years and can never be described as mint. It has a genuine GPO No 12 alphanumeric dial face. I can make a dial label with your information at no extra charge.
