    appears to be all original. Mounting cord is thin , may not be original
    This older model 500 is a  more desirable  telephone and  features black plungers, a metal fingerwheel and a heavy bakelite  G1 handset. they were made this way from 1952 to 1964 . They were the early 500 model. This one is very rare because of the very hard to find , with straight handset cord
