This Gallery is of an old
wooden Telephone Booth that we restored for Cingular and AutoSonics. Our
goal was for the booth to look original but with one minor change. This
telephone booth is equipped with a working cellular telephone.
Stop by
AutoSonics

This is the condition of the
Telephone booth prior to us taking it
apart |
 |
The copper plate interior was in
very bad condition, and covered with several coats of paint.
|
|
After all the old finishes were
removed, it revealed a beautiful
Honduras Mahogany wooden shell. |
 |
The copper plate was restored, and
the inner case re-assembled. |
 |
After the inner case was assembled
the booth was fitted with it's new phone. |
 |
The outer restored Mahogany cabinet
was then refitted and the doors with the original beveled glass panels
were attached. |
 |
Special attention was paid to the
details of the exterior phonebook shelf and lamp that were attached to the
outside of the unit, prior to the finished product being shipped to it's
new home at AutoSonics in Highland Park, Illinois, where it is on
display. |
Stop by and try out
this unique Telephone Booth, and Please remember to say Hello to Corky for us.
