Wood wall set converted to a radio for a presentation

It's always interesting, if painful, to see what happened to some of the phones that were removed from service.

Here's an example that's currently being offered for sale thru the ATCA list.

Note the supporting documentation including a photo of the former owner with Eisenhower and presentation plaque.  A few of the many photos are included below for reference.

I saw that on the list too! It is quite a mess inside. I guess it could be returned to it's former life as a phone. From what the seller stated it appears he thinks the "provenance" makes it worth many thousands of dollars

The case is in good shape except for the screws from the presentation plate.  I would give him $45-50.
