Vintage Cut-And-Paste Pantone Sheets













































































































Enjoy a relic from design's past and look at it everyday to be grateful for today's color printers. This vibrant Pantone sheet would make a lovely edition to your studio or home.

In rare condition this Pantone Sheet was once used for color mock-ups. Printed with a grid on the back to cut into squares, the front is a large Pantone sample printed on Letracolor Color Paper. Unsure of the exact dates, the sheets are dated from the 60's to the 80's.

OKI - Art Deco - Vintage Black Telephone - 1920's


















This rare Black telephone was produced by the Japanese electric company OKI. Dates back to the 1920's with its Art Deco design.

Still has the old wiring that connected to the operator, so it is not in working condition. The plastic covering over the "Dial No." space is cracked. The rotary device spins and springs back in perfect working condition and overall it is in good condition considering its age.

This handsome phone would act as an excellent condition to a study or office. Or perhaps if you are handy, turn it into a working phone for today's standards!
