THIS PHONE WAS IN THE HOUSE WHEN I BOUGHT IT.  MY HOUSE WAS BUILT IN 1962 BUT I DONT KNOW HOW LONG THE PHONE HAS BEEN INSTALLED.  IT DOES WORK AS IT SHOULD...AND I HAVE CURRENTLY RECEIVED AND CALLED OUT ON IT.   

SEE PHOTOS AS THE EAR PIECE LOOKS MORE WHITE THAN THE CREAM COLOR AND THE CORDS ARE WHITE AS WELL.  OVERALL CONDITION CAN BE SEEN IN THE PHOTOS.
