If I were not 1000 miles away, I would be there, too!  I will have to plan a trip one of these days.  I have seen pictures online, and it looks very impressive.

Even if it was local I would not bother to go. I have absolutely nothing on my 'want' list and am not a Dealer on the hunt for bargains to sell on. Trolley dragging does not appeal.

Already more phones in my Phone Den than I can fit in there so even some of those have to go (I do not like clutter, no squeezing the phones tighter together or phones on floor allowed in my display).

...But for those readers who want to go, attached is the complete schedule for 2023. Get yourselves down there and pick up those dollar phones to either collect or sell on. Happy hunting everyone! Enjoy!!

Oxidized Silver Factory 202.

I wish it had the matching Painted Handset, but I think it will look great with an Ivory F1.

Bonus is it is a manual set, I have never seen a factory painted manual set..Doug

This is the hard to find Cosmo stick. No bottom.

Needs to be painted but appears to be solid and complete, except for the bottom. I have the MP

Would that stick have a wood bottom?
