Title: Interesting Rotary Trimline
Post by: HarrySmith on November 19, 2010, 09:33:59 PM
I recently received a couple of phones from a customer for repair and one of them is quite interesting. A Western Electric Rotary Trimline in Orange! I was not aware WE made them in this color and a quick search at Pauls site does not list it.

I don't think so. It does look a little Red in my pictures but it is definetly Orange. I will know for sure after I open it up this weekend.

WE made a burnt orange color and a rust color on trimlines.Yours looks like the burnt orange color. The rust is only a shade or 2 different.
