Title: Factory Gold Western Electric Manual 202
Post by: Doug Rose on December 03, 2011, 03:35:14 PM
I found this on eBay last week. Beautiful factory paint gold WE 202. Only minor chips to the paint. The original gold cord was frayed, but underneath the wires were fine. Jan did the braid for me. It had a an older ball type E1 on it, but the paint was too far gone on it. I had a spare brown bakelite F1 and it looks superb on it. I am more than happy with this....Doug

Excellent!  That looks like it should have come from the factory that way.  The whole set of colors including the black dial number card, work together well in that combination.
