Questions About 1940s Phone
- When were Bakelite phones made?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Bakelite phones became very popular in the 1930s with the Ericsson DBH 1001 from Sweden. It pioneered the notion of what modern plastic phones should look like. Bakelite phones were less common in the 1940s as other materials became more popular. Shop a collection of antique bakelite phones from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023Yes, some rotary phones are valuable. Collectors often seek pieces in colors other than black, brown, white and beige, so phones that are blue, green, yellow, red, pink or purple may be worth more. The maker, age and condition will also impact the value. Rotary dial phones were brought to market in America in around 1919 or so and became widely used during the 1950s. If you want to know how much a particular piece may sell for, a licensed certified appraiser can assist you. On 1stDibs, find a selection of rotary phones.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023In the 1930s, phones typically looked like rotary telephones. They had either a round or square base with a numbered dial that spun when you dialed and a handset receiver with both an earpiece and a mouthpiece. A cord connected the handset to the base. Find a variety of rotary phones on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023Whether you can fit a phone in a Kelly wallet depends on the phone. The Hermès Kelly wallet measures 7.8 inches in length by 4.5 inches in height by 0.6 inches in depth, so it can accommodate some slim phones. As a result, it’s a good idea to check the measurements of your phone before purchasing. On 1stDibs, shop a range of Hermès Kelly wallets.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021In the 1940s, ladies wore clothes defined by clean and slim silhouettes. The jackets, blouses and sweaters often featured shoulderpads and had somewhat of a military feel. Most dresses were quite casual and pants and playsuits became part of a woman's everyday style.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A number of dresses were popular during the 1940s. Many women wore short-waist dresses with button necks, collars, fitted waists and full skirts. The classic A-lines with knee-length hems in red, white and blue colors were also a trend. Shop a collection of vintage dresses on 1stDibs.
- What is a 1940s style dress?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021The most popular 1940s-style dress was the shirtwaist dress. It had a front opening like a men’s shirt, but with large buttons in the front of the dress, which was practical and easy to wear. The sleeves were short and necklines varied from shirt style to sweetheart and other necklines. Antique and vintage dresses from well-known designers are available on 1stDibs.
