Makes me wonder how many Imperials had painted handsets and how many had solid.  Seems painted is more common.  Could be they ran out of Ivory Thermoplastic handsets and started painting them?  I have an Ivory 354 wallphone from 1953 with an Ivory thermoplastic case that came with a matching painted handset.  The paint was all chipped off and I had a solid ivory one to replace it.  WE really did mix and match and did whatever they had to do to get them out!
