Telephone Number Cards

[Shaul-Ike Cohen]

Mine won't work - it's got a zero in, and according to my dial that's the operator only.

My new number here inthe Bronx starts with 231, which HAS to be BElmont 1. I'm near the Belmont section of the Bronx, which is where Dion and the Belmonts came from. I'm current;y bidding on a nice WE 302, so I guess the next step will be the number plate.
Shaul-Ike, what are the first 3 characters? That doesn't sound quite right.

sadly, the plethora of area codes here in LA.....makes this way less -cute- for anything other then the number plate...


somehow.....(area code) WOrd #-####


just isnt the same...but if you don't give others the area code....in LA they will have about 8 options of area code for that number.....

o well....

Ok....I qualify my statement.....I meant practical in the -2008- world.....

Otherwise would be quite nice to put on personal cards......one can -explain- the letters part...if needed.....or can just function as a test of worthiness of calling me......

European. Have to check local sources.

I put this in the Display Case a while back.

I updated my Western Electric Model 302 with new cords from http://oldphoneworks.com/index.asp?currency=USD
and just now put on the finishing touch, an new dial card with my current phone number with a Ma Bell exchange name.

I found it at http://www.vintageswank.com/vintage-...d-inserts.html

For $2.75 they print in the exchange and number in the correct font. They have dial cards for many other makes, too. Email them at their contact page. They were very helpful.

The number card on my old phone reads: LAkehurst2- 1956. I'm not sure where, geographically, the number would have existed.

My home phone still uses the original FRanklin (37) exchange. My cell phone starts with 87, and I haven't decided wich exchange name to adopt for it, or whether I'll just make one up.

I made a FRanklin number card last year for my old 302.
