Title: Craig's List: Curved Door Booth and Phone, Denver
Post by: Nick in Manitou on January 26, 2013, 04:56:36 PM
I have seen this ad on the Denver Craigslist for some time.

I figured that I'd mention it here in case it is something that someone really wants.

I did my part...I pointed out that it was available...don't I get a finder's fee (or at least a D1 mount and a nice subset) for doing that?

That looks like it could be a really good deal for someone out east.  Looks like they have at least two of them also.  That one looks to be at least a couple years newer than ours.  Ours still has the "TELEPHONE" sign and round Bell System logo on the angled steel panel by the door recession.  Wish it was a little closer, I'd try to go for it.

Do they make a USPS Priority "If it fits, it ships" box, in this size? :D

Nice booth!

Best regards!

If it does not sell before I get there I am picking up a booth like this one on Saturday.

I picked up this one in Laramie, WY a couple weeks ago. Anyone seen one with an ashtray before? Looking for info on manufacturer and years made. Found a quarter and 4 dimes in the door pocket when I cleaned it out, all 1967/68.

Okay, I found this post "KS19206 Curved Door Booth" by Esalter, who I know well, and will work from there.
