Title: Custom dial cards for 1960s W.E. 500
Post by: DarrenWGaransi on November 24, 2011, 09:18:23 AM
Hi Everyone,

A few years ago, I ordered some dial cards from Ebay-there was an assortment of various W.E. cards with my number customized onto them.  The older cards looked great and I installed them into my 302 and 354 phones but the ones for the newer 500s had the area code written backwards so I really couldn't use them.  I just had the urge to order them again but can't seem to find any that would be authentic to the 500 phone, where the area code is stated with the telephone number below.

Does anyone know of a way that I can order them or work with some type of template?  I just looked at Old Phone Works-they don't list the dial card with the area code, etc. for the "newer" W.E. rotaries.

Any help would be greatley appreciated.

Thanks so much.

Go to telephonearchive, dial card section. Copy the card you like. Download it. Modify in PowerPoint.
