Looks like the real deal, and it wouldn't be too hard to get the cords. Auction contest possibility?

And the official auction contest it is!  I'm in for $350.  Shame about the fading.

I think it will do well despite the fading.  There just aren't that many out there, but still not as high as it would be if in better shape.  With that bit of wisdom, I'll say $667.88

I was just reading Briny's thread on the "Poison Green Phone"

http://www.classicrotaryphones.com/forum/index.php?topic=4005.0

and so I would like to point out that I seem to be "Poison" to these contests but never the less, I'll try again.

I already know where in California this should go for restoration unless Jorge got his wish and there was one under the tree yesterday morning. I hope it goes for less than $888.88

By the way, the seller is a long time collector/club member whom I haven't heard anything from in a long time.

Fading??? What fading? Nothing that some TLC can't remove.

I agree, pretty badly faded and no cords. Seller states pictures look better than actual phone!!
