1976 PTT T65: Smaragd

[LM Ericsson]

 I received this Emerald Green PTT T65 from Amsterdam, The Netherlands a couple days ago. It is such a beautiful shade of green, a much different shade than the FeTAp 611. I kinda spent an arm and leg on this ($95) because of the color and the fact that there are not many of these in this color that show up on Ebay or Etsy. This phone is mainly built by Heemaff, dial is built by Ericsson, and cords are ITT. I also think the number card is interesting on this phone also.

That is a really nice color.  It looks like it might be more at home in Ireland

It would definitely blend in with those beautiful green hills!

Nice one. Looks to be in good condition.

PTT t65 have brighter colors than their german cousinds.

The number card provided by PTT was black with a white number space. Your number card is one made by Unique temp agency. It was given away free as a promotional gift. Ofthen these phones have cards like that from some company or other.
