This is the finest example of a working British General Post Office GPO #150 original antique candlestick with its original wooden wall bell set. The phone has been fully stripped down, restored, and rebuilt to the highest possible standard. The collar and ear piece have polished to give it a fantastic look. The dial works perfectly and we have fitted excellent quality hand platted cords for prefect sound quality.


The phone is connected to its original wooden GPO bell box, so when it's connected the brass bells ring. There is a picture of the internals of the bell box with its original paper circuit diagram. The original speech coil was giving trouble & since it is practically impossible to acquire a replacement ,  a modern replacement has been added. It is tucked away in the bell box. The marks behind the bell box are
