`I’m not sure what antique store this was hiding, but we scooped it up immediately. I loved these old style wall phones – and while they were replaced with the touch-tone versions, every kitchen in America would likely have had one in the 1970’s. My version is labelled with Bell Systems.

From Wikipedia:
Beginning in the early 1950s, 500-style phones were also made under license by ITT Kellogg (now Cortelco), who continued manufacturing the original rotary design, marketed as the Cortelco ITT-500AS (desk phone) and Cortelco ITT-554AS (wall phone), until discontinuation on January 1, 2007. The design was also produced in Canada by Northern Electric, which eventually became Northern Telecom. Cortelco continues to produce a non-dial version of the model 500, known as the Model 89001047PAK, this phone is available only in bright red color. Stromberg-Carlson (now part of Siemens) also made the phones from the 1950s-1980s.
