This was SC's answer to the famous Western Electric 554. In fact, the 1553 is often referred to as the \"sloped\" 554. Soon after this model was introduced, Stromberg Carlson followed the lead of Kellogg and started producing model 554's under license. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Restoration Process\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDial – \u003c\/strong\u003eThe dial has been fully disassembled, cleaned, lubed and timed to ensure years of trouble free service.

This ensures that there are no scratches, dents or dings. The shell is them carefully buffed on our two step buffing wheels. This takes out the fine abrasions left by sanding and leaves the plastic with a smooth factory fresh finish. Finally we apply a three step plastic restoration compound. This leaves the plastic with a beautiful high gloss finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHandset – \u003c\/strong\u003eThe handset has been ultrasonically cleaned to get all embedded debris.
