Cool payphone photos Mike. My Dad ran the coin operation for AGT and the yellow page sales too. We have a few fully operational earlier metal specimens in the family and these are three of mine. I have the housing keys and coin box access keys too. Also the coin boxes. Black Dials were common and the Teal were hard to find when these were replaced with the plastic housing pay phones. The teals has coiled receiver cables that people would cut. You can see the steel encased cables for the black hand sets.Forgot to post this from the lake Louise daylodge. Sure don’t see many of these around anymore. Let alone 2 of them in pristine condition like these complete with “white pages”

These three phones work on Telus analog lines but I have Shaw now ... I have not tried the push button though ... it was a real bugger to get operational ... as the in house repair fellas did not like them at all and I had to pull out all my bribes and trades to get someone to fix this up for me.
