Ha, boy oh boy that wasn't what I was expecting when I clicked the link!

Tom;
I switch colors of my desk phones to match the holiday.

You do a great job of matching the phone colors to the seasons.  Of course we are all set for Halloween with our black phones! 

Might need some skulls on them for effect.

Martin Luther Kings Birthday was easy, I put up my Black 500, 5302, and 302.

Don't forget, Halloween, add an Orange phone.

Ok Dan. Lets play a game here. The pink and blue are soft plastic (tenite) while the yellow isn't and has a refurbished handset and cord. Also, are the dials soft centered except the yellow?

Just trying to hone my We500 ID skills........

Ooooo I wanna play... The blue is the oldest of the trio, but none of them are soft plastic.

[Dan/Panther]

Anyone else want to venture a guess before I reveal the true nature of these beasts.
Both of you have made partial correct assumptions.
Keep in mind I'm not rich, and I've only been doing this a short time.

The blue one is oldest and was made in 59'.  The pink one was made in 64' and the yellow in 65'.  The yellow has a refurb handset cord.  Only the blue one is soft plastic and even that is not quite a sure bet.  The pink one has a small ding on the left rear corner where aunt Gladlys dropped it once when she heard that Reagan had been shot after cousin Ethel called her with the news. 

Am I close? 

[Dan/Panther]

McHeath;
darn you're good, wrong but good...
Close The Blue one is 58, the Pink one is 64, The yellow one is 55.

Wow old yellers are hard to find. I have a 59 blue(hard), a 58 pink  (soft), and no yellow except a 77 (doesn't count)

[bingster]

Is the yellow refurbed?  It looks like it has the little plastic feet.

Ha, this made my day!

Bingster;
Yes it was refurbed in 1969. according to markings. The only things changed I can see, were the feet, and case.
