Lot 364:
Description
A decorative novelty model or coin bank designed in the style of a mid-20th-century American three-slot public payphone. The piece is constructed from a cast synthetic resin with a textured black finish and silver-painted accents. The front features a non-functional rotary-style dial with a central yellow label marked PUBLIC 1957 TELEPHONE. The dial ring includes printed numbers and letters. The top section of the cabinet displays three simulated coin slots marked with the denominations 25, 10, and 5. A small silver-coloured button to the top right is marked PUSH. The handset is a static component of the model. There are no internal electronic components visible, and the item is intended for decorative use.
