Color code for trimline

[John S]

Can anyone tell me where I can find a code color for a trimline?  I am looking everywhere and can't find anything.  I have a trimline, I dunno if its light grey or cream color.  Is there s specific spot to look at on the phone?
Thanks..

Western Electric color codes are on the back of the dial, not sure if Trimlines are the same, did you look there?

If you post pictures of the inside of the plastic back of the handset, someone may be able to tell the color. As far as I know, the 10A and 10AL dials have only the model and date of manufacture, but not a color code.

Here are some pictures.  I am not sure what color it is...

Looks like ivory (color code -50). That was probably the most popular color for leased Western Electric phones in the 1980s.

This appears to be a refurbished phone: the paper mat was changed to metal, the adapter was installed so that standard modular cords could be used,  the circuit board was replaced, and perhaps new plastic was provided. (I don't think they were still making round button Trimlines in 1981, but were still making parts for them.)
