Listing Description:  "Vintage Turquoise Western Electric 1554 10-Button Touch Tone Wall Phone -- This is one of the less common colors for these phones. The phone is turquoise color, not aqua blue. Dated 10-66. Components have assorted dates. -- Phone dials out, rings, and receives calls. This phone was meant to be mounted on the wall and hardwired to the phone line. It would require a modular line cord added or to be hardwired to a phone jack to use. It does not have a modular phone jack to connect directly to a wall phone jack. -- Handset has some dents and wear from the hook, especially on the sides at the receiver end. Handset and housing plastic has discolored a bit. There are some small chips around the holder for the phone number card. Housing has scuffs and scratches. Plastic for dial buttons has discolored to a bit of a lighter color. Handset cord is dirty and stretched."
