Antique Western Electric Three Slot Payphone

This is an original three slot payphone made by western electric. It has been fully refurbished and it really takes a coin to dial out. It will work on any ATT, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile phone line. It also is compatible with U-Verse, Comcast or any other Voip provider, with a small dial tone converter, which I can supply. It has a coin module that is hidden behind the coin return pull bucket. It enables the phone to be truly automated, as if hooked up to a telephone company Central Office. It operates just like it did when they were on every street corner in North America. It collects AND returns coins, based on if someone answers the phone, does not answer or when you get a busy signal.

I looked at your work and might I suggest one change, put the controller in another box, the bell box.

This telephone used an external ringer and network of the 425 type when upgraded.

By using upgraded parts the voice quality will improve.

By using an external box you will preserve the internals as they were, the coin operate circuit will still operate from the pair, exactly as it was, but the circuit will be inside the bell box, hidden behind the ringer.

Enjoy the telephone! Rudolph.

@Arabhacks Thanks for the comment. I used to do that but customers, when given the option, wanted it inside without a clunky bell box. When mounted inside and hidden, I do not drill any holes or disrupt the original interior. Rather, it is all placed inside with double sided adhesive, with all original components left in their original state, location and function. It is all easily removed also

That's a nice phone, but is it upgradeable to Android Ice Cream Sandwich, and will it support 4G? All kidding aside, that is a nice phone and I'd love to have one.
