Customer Feedback

So sorry I have not contacted you earlier - just wanted to thank you very much for the beautiful telephone you sent a few weeks ago. Your photos did not do justice to the phone it was far better than I expected.
My husband did moan a little when he initially recieved the parcel - but has commented on how good it looks several times since..
We now have matching vintage phones in our office & they really do look fabulous.
Hope to be in touch again very soon.
Best wishes,
Sue.

Look at Antique Telephones from the 1950s and they could set you back a few hundred pounds. If you can afford one it`s definitely worth the money because they are steeped in nostalgia and charm. A beautiful black Bakelite GPO phone from the early 1950s would look charming when placed upon its very own table. This phone could take pride of place inside your sitting room and when it rings the whole room can be enlivened by the sound. People that purchase the Antique Telephones know that these phones are full of period styles.

Retro is hugely popular at the moment and it`s very easy to see why when there are products like Antique Telephones ready to grace modern homes with their presence.

GPO telephones

I can remember our very first GPO phone being installed when I was a small boy growing up in the 1970s. It seems funny to think of it now with the advent of phone technology and mobile phones becoming so popular, but back in the early 1970s our house didn`t have a phone at all. My mum and dad used to pop to the public phone box at the end of the street if they needed to make a call. When they took delivery of their very first GPO telephone it was quite a memorable occasion. Of course, if they had kept hold of that phone it would have been worth quite a bit these days. That`s because old Gpo Telephones are highly collectable because of their retro appeal. Collectors of retro items can find old Gpo Telephones for sale through online suppliers. Handsets from the 50s, 60s and 70s can be found online and each one has its very own distinctive charm. I have looked at some of the Gpo Telephones for sale and they are very hard to resist. In particular I find the Bakelite Gpo Telephones from the 1950s to be greatly appealing. Other people might prefer Gpo Telephones from the 1970s as this era seems to be extremely popular at the moment. As for me, I`m glad I was around when our first GPO telephone was installed because it`ll be something to tell the grandkids about one day.

Bakelite telephones

Do you remember the old phones that used to be around in the 1960s or 1970s? If you are of a certain age you will and you might even see one of them at your grandparent`s house if they have kept hold of their original handset. The old GPO telephones from the 1960s and 1970s are extremely collectable right now and Bakelite Telephones from the 1950s are being snapped up because of their retro appeal. You have to admit that when you look at the Bakelite Telephones you can`t help but come over all nostalgic. Stunning examples can be found through antique phone collectors that sell a number of Bakelite Telephones online. If you want a stunning handset to make or receive calls on then the Bakelite Telephones will be right up your street. Compared to modern phones there is no comparison really because the quality of the Bakelite Telephones is apparent. They look sturdy and durable, chunky and charming and will look delightful when placed upon a suitable table. You could purchase one of the Bakelite Telephones and try to imagine what sort of past life it has had. A handsome piece of history could soon be sitting in your hallway ready to receive numerous incoming calls.
