Hi everybody,
                      I won this phone a little while back on e-bay! Just got around to cleaning it up and adding a ringer, it was ordered without one XX.  Here are the pics.  Gotta go and look for more phones!!!!!!!!     stub


           Jim S has a nice one for sale in the classified section

Ken: A nice AE 95 Panel Phone in Copper. You got the backbox with it too. That is fairly rare.

Hi Terry,
             Thanks !  I have another one, not quite as nice, for parts if needed.
              Do you have any idea where I might find some more of the vinyl inserts?    stub

Stub,
The back box is the hard part. Mine is also missing the overlay. If anyone is interested in mine. Shoot me an offer. Low offers don't offend me, Neither do high offers. I am open to trade offers.
My Ae is lyon's bound if it doesn't sell.

I think I have a set of several colored inserts with one of my AE 95's. I'll check to see how many I have just incase I have "way too many" of them although I don't think that is the case. I have seen these phones with wall paper inserts to match the wall that it was installed on etc so I suspect you could make your own quite easily.

The copper looks nice even without the insert. You have to look twice to notice that it should have one. I bought mine knowing I should find a backbox. It wasn't until later I realized that it should have an insert.

Terry,
        Have you seen these in DTMF?      Don't tell Larry!!!!!!!!! I guess I'll have to stick with original inserts that were for this phone .  If you have way too many though I might be interested in at least one more for the other copper 95 I have.  Thanks, Ken                stub


 Jim S - I'm  still trying to get your 95  sold!!!!!!!            stub

I've been thinking about just building a phone right into my wall with some old 500 parts, just to be creative, kind of falls under the lines of the panel phones.

Very nice acquisition. But where is the ringer? Is it in a separate box? Did I miss it?

Oh yes, of course I know that.  I just think it would be kind of fun to make my own rig.

Of course you know that WECo made a panel phone as well.

Jorge,
          I took the pictures without the ringer, because it was ordered that way, and installed one a few days later.   stub

I just saw this stub and it looks fine.

I think it is so weird that even though that Western Electric and Automatic Electric were made during the same era, that they look so different. It is good different. I am going to try to get every color of the 500 sets of Western Electric. Well it looks good.

Kenny,
            Thanks and get as many as you can , but you need to get a bigger table to display or have more broken phones when they fall..
             Let me know when to swing by and pick up dials to clean .      stub

Great phone!  I really like the panel phones, and wish my house had one as it would have fit the style perfectly.  Yours looks very nice with the ivory and copper.
