Bought the phone in Ghana served me four years, 1963 to 67. The battery lost power. I still keep to show my children. Why not revive the phone?

Indeed a great phone. Slim, soft touch, great battery life, very simple and effective interface. I wasn't a big fan of phone with antenna but i still miss this one today. The "Sonar" ring tone was amazing !!
