3rd Generation AE Starlite Desk Phone

Here is a Sand Beige AE Starlite phone from the third and final generation. The base would be made of black colored plastic and it has a built in jack in the base for the set cord but the handset remained hard wired. There was no more illumination of the dial on these “E” models. All non illuminating Starlite dials have the solid ivory colored number plate with the unusual number / letters arrangement. There is now just a single plunger as the switch hook contacts are built onto the main circuit board. The handset cord exits on the front right side now.
