I will produce-- especially for you-- a unique, single-edition of one, custom dial card for your vintage rotary phone. Your dial card will be printed to order on medium card stock which has been repurposed from vintage print media.  I have hand punched the  card to a diameter of 1 and 1/2 inches. Faded black and off white sepia tone will be used to give your card an aged appearance using specific fonts that replicate a vintage dial card machine and hand stamped look from the late 1960's---This particular style replicates one from a time when exchanges letters were still common but area codes were newly introduced. I am happy to send multiples of the exact same design and exact same custom phone number at a discount when specified at the time of your initial order using the discount button.

Please see my other listings: I have many styles of custom dial cards available for phones from different makers and different eras. I am also able to print cards with diameters of 1 and 1/4 inches or 1 and 11/16 inches with the same type of design--please message me if you need one of these sizes. I also have a series of cards with the particular size and shape of dial cards for mid-era Automatic Electric phones.

The diameter of your card will be 1 and 1/2 inches with or without a notch so that your card will fit Western Electric, Northern Electric, ITT and others using plastic finger wheels for type 6-9 dials. These will fit some Stromberg Carlson and Automatic Electric finger wheels as well. Specifically though, they will not fit European phones, older metal ring finger wheels that are 1 and 1/4 inches, or Automatic Electric finger wheels that are 1 and 9/16 inches. The plastic finger wheels and dials pictured are used to show the fit and edges of the card when installed. (Any paper edge marks will not show.) Each card is made when you order and will have some variations in color from what you see here which was printed, photographed, and displayed on your cell phone or computer screen. If you have particular requirements please let me know at the time of your order. Please specify what you would like printed in a message to me with your order. I will send a screen shot for proofing before I mail your actual card with free domestic shipping in a regular US mail envelope.

Under the exchange system, the first two numbers were represented by the first two letters of a word, followed by the rest of the word in a smaller different font which was not dialed, the third number in the phone number, then a hyphen, and finally the last four numbers (which were hand applied in the field) to make up a unique seven digit phone number.

Here are some recommendations for choice of letters and numbers:
1. Your actual seven digit phone number without area code using the exchanges above.
2. A phone number from pop-culture. ie: Desi and Lucy's,, Butterfield-8, or 867-5309 (jenny's)
3. The card listing the color of your special vintage phone and date of production. ie: Mahogany 3-1955
4. Your street address.
5. Someone's name and birthday.
6. Whatever else you can think of.... but I reserve the right to cancel your order if I do want to produce it (political or hate speech etc.)
