Stub1953 picked this up for me at a thrift store. It is a ITT/Cortelo from 1991 with un-marked plastics. It doesnt have a matching handset or line cord. I think he did pretty good for 2.00  ;D 8)

There used to be an advertising jingle "Is it real or Memorex" where Memorex was a brand of audio recording tape (back when audio was pretty well the only thing that could be recorded on tape.

So I wasn't sure if stub was joking about this being a before picture of your clear phone or not. The thought that a darkened discolored clear phone could be retrobrighted back to a nice clear phone came to mind along with the Memorex jingle.

I think stub did brilliantly getting a nice piece like that for $2.00.
Good score, Kenny.
