Telephone Furniture - Dial Labels, Label Protectors & Index Code Cards (£2.50-£11.00)
There is little doubt that high quality paper furniture is the finishing touch for any quality restoration and we have drawn from our large archive of original material to create our unique offering of telephone ephemera. Our 'first generation' facsimiles present by far the best opportunity to furnish your vintage telephone with paper furniture which has meaning to you.
Once prolific, few original examples remain and the scarcity of index cards, for example, was not helped by the GPO's instruction to 'Destroy Any Previous Issue' when publishing an updated card! Fortunately some folk are not good at following orders and hence we hold an archive of over 400 original index cards.
We are now offering facsimiles of an exceedingly rare six page drawer index from 1938 - we have only ever seen two examples.
We can supply custom dial labels in a variety of designs. Our labels are punched with a custom die punch complete with the correct rectangular bottom cut out. They are also available with a crystal-clear matching label protector. We can add any exchange/area name and any number. We would recommend a format such as 'LOUGHBOROUGH 4878' for a period look, but we are happy to work around your requirements.
When purchasing, please include a message to include:
-The design type (A-F)
-The area/exchange (not applicable for design B)
-The telephone number
