I would say this is a very scarce  phone.

This could go high. Some collecors know the seller, and they will probably bid higher than they would with an unknown seller.

The seller is Jon Kolger ATCA #561. He is a  long time Telephone collector, He knows a lot about early colored sets.


Jon is a good guy to deal with.

Agree with you 100%. I believe Paul F has one in white as well as Gary Goff. They came in some of the WE "rare" colors as well.

I would say the brown is most common followed by white/ivory. I would say white/ivory Norths are rarer than  plastic blue WE 302's.

It sold for about $325.00 plus shipping.
I think the buyer got a good deal.

For $325.00 cracked or not, the buyer got a tremendous bargain. you just don't see too many of those. in fact it's the only one I've ever seen.
