Title: North 541 Sets
Post by: kleenax on January 07, 2022, 09:08:51 PM
Finally found a pic (albeit small) of my 541 Norths that I used to own. Jim Engle (hopefully) has them now. Check out the SUPER weird AE 890 dial/TT sets above!  Those went to the JKL Museum and burned up :-(

Wow!  I have one of those AE weird phones, but look at those Norths!

Yea, they are, in my opinion, the RAREST of the RARE when it comes to 500-type colored variations!  And they are all Soft Plastic too. In fact, they are like trying to buff hard butter, so BE CAREFUL when you do!  I even had my hands on a Pastel Yellow and a Beige one once at a phone show, but alas, I was told that they were already sold :-(

I do have a black 541 desk set and a 561 black wall set, but none on other colors.  Wish I did!
