RARE GRAY #10A SHIELD PAYSTATION PAYPHONE COIN COLLECTOR
“There are a number of small chips and wear on the paint after all these years but looks great for its age. There is no rework or repair of this item. This unit appears to have been used during the war as a means to collect money for the troops as you can see in the instruction card. The small dark spots on the inside of the vault drawer are from glue residue which held a green felt cloth on the bottom which has long since gone. An old piece of green felt could be used to replace the old. The entire paystation collector and the specially fabricate wood mounting item are painted to match. All coins sound loud when inserted in the nickel, dime and quarter slots. The transmitter is a Western Electric 229W and shows age on the nickel.”
