Vintage Beige Singapore Telecom Rotary Phone (NEC)

This rotary phone was sold when Singtel was still Telecommunication Authority of Singapore. There is a stamp with the letters TAS at the bottom of the phone. This should place this phone in the 1970s - 1980s. This is a NEC model very commonly used in households back then. Another popular rotary phone was the Ericsson LM, which was featured in an earlier post.

Singapore Telecom Vintage Flat Rotary Phones

This is another post on the Singapore Telecom Vintage Flat Rotary Phones. Below is a snapshot of 4 phones of different colours and makes of the same model. I have also learnt that back in the 1970s, the cost of installation of a phone like this would set a family back by 120 dollars, which was not a small amount back then.

In 1970s, the phone cable heads were also different, with a metallic 5 pin as shown below. In order for these vintage phones to work, the phone cable heads have to be changed to the modern ones.

St. Helena's Last 1 Pound with A/1 Prefix

The Saint Helena pound (also called simply "pound") is the currency of the Atlantic islands of Saint Helena and Ascension, which are constituents of the British overseas territory of Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha. It is fixed at parity with the pound sterling and is subdivided into 100 pence.

Tristan da Cunha, the third part of the territory, uses Pound sterling rather than the St Helena pound. However there are occasionally commemorative coins minted for the island.
