Pastel pink   Take a look at this telephone and don't adjust your colour. Yes you are looking at a powder pink 300 series telephone manufactured in the late 1950s and early 1960s. It is believed that ATM sold there tooling to Indian Telephone Industries at this time and these telephones were produced in small numbers in pastel colours. They were powder blue, pink, light green, peach, fawn, white and red. Because the red and white were made by the GPO these are not so sought after. They also made a clear one as well. These were made in the original format with the internal workings mounted in the body just as the ATM and the GPO. As you can see the moulding are of a very high quality. I have fitted this one with GPO internals, a GPO No10 dial and a best quality hand plaited braided cord. I doubt there are even ten of this colour that could be restored to this condition in the world. A collector friend of mine had a number of contacts in India and bought all the good ones in existence and even then had to pay though the nose. I bought a couple on Ebay in as found around 8 years ago and paid around £700. As you can imagine in India these were used to destruction and so there were many damaged ones he did not buy. I believe these will become one of the most sought after telephones in the world. Mark my words you heard it here first. The only damage to this is a small chip as can be seen on the mouth piece and a small stress line in the logo oval on the handset. Otherwise perfect. It is fully working to both dial out and receive perfectly and has an electronic microphone for perfect speech quality.
