1959 702B Princess?

[MagicMo]

Question. Was there a 702B Princess in 1959? I found this box today, it was used for spare parts. I just noticed the model number and date. Take a look. 702B 59 pink. Just curious.
Thanks
Mo

-59 is the color code for pink. The date will be stamped on the bottom of the phone.

I'm not there anymore. Sorry. I don't think a phone was in there. I have hundreds of boxes without phones in them all around the house!

Yes, the Princess came out in 1959.

As pointed out, the color code is on the box.  Look at the bottom plate for the date.  (Of course, like all phones, parts may have been updated during refurb.)

I recognize the bin it was in.  If I remember right, it is the same type bell system supply chain used to transport small phone equipment.

I have about twenty of those bins. They have Bell System on the top and sides. They are cool!

My bins are missing their lids .Did not know they had  them.You might try to match the telephones with the cardboard boxes they might have been in. Sometimes the empty box brings good money on ebay
