Description
Wall-mount push-button telephone designed to evoke a vintage three-slot payphone, finished in glossy black with chrome trim and a coiled handset cord. The rear panel is marked "TeleConcepts" with "MADE IN HONG KONG"; the front placard reads "DEPOSIT MONEY BEFORE DIALING TO CALL LOCAL NUMBERS" and includes the tongue-in-cheek line "EMPTY YOUR ENTIRE WALLET INTO PAYFONE." Features simulated 25/10/5 coin slots, a "COIN RETURN" chute, a locking coin-box door, and a Pulse/Redial keypad.
