I own an advertising specialty company – now in our 45th year I am happy to report – and worked in the industry for many years prior to establishing my own firm. For many years my best client was what was formerly known as «The Bell System». Of course after Judge Green’s ruling, divestiture occurred and it was later broken up into what was generally called the «Baby Bells» – and later morphed into many variations.So over the years we worked very closely with Western Electric, AT&T, Southern Bell, Bellsouth, Lucent Technologies, OFS, Avaya, etc. I collected many over-run samples, one-or-a-kind spec samples, and the likes. I am now selling much of that collection via eBay. I have been searching through old samples and over-runs of orders I sold to various Bell System entities. And I do have many such samples. Here are four different interesting Southern Bell items from the 1980’s. Details: * It was in the 1980’s that B. Franklin Skinner was President. Mr. skinner, or «Big Frank» as he was affectionately known around S.B. – but not to his face – had his staff create nine company values: Service, Stewardship, Willingness to Listen, Respect, Excellence, Integrity, Willingness to Inform and Innovation. Later this list was reduced by one value. I think it was «Willingness To Inform», but not certain. Perhaps a former Southern Bell employee will remember. Here is an over-run sample of a plaque we sole S.B. to enforce these values. The size is 5″ x 7″. It is difficult to photograph this plaque due to the reflection. At the bottom after the values, is this statement…»If we agree on these principles and accept then as our values, together we will make our company the best there is. Then it has Mr. skinner’s signature and the logo. It was U.S.A. made. * We sold Southern Bell many writing instruments, from inexpensive ones to A.T. Cross. Here is a sample of a nice set they used. It was U.S.A. made by Centennial Pen, now long out of business. Their quality was superior to imports, but due to high price points, they could not compete. The metal set includes a ballpoint pen and mechanical pencil – both with the Bell System Seal emblem affixed. But note, the pen twist to extend the point, and it is difficult to do so. This nice set is gift boxed in Centennial’s two piece plastic box, along with their instructions and guarantee – TEN years, by the way… * We also sold S.B. many luggage tags, as many of their employees traveled quite a bit. Here is one in genuine suede russet leather. It is branded with the «Bell System» logo and tag line «National Sales». These luggage tags are designed with a semi-concealed front window. At the time there were disreputable people who would hang around the airport and read luggage tags. They could get a name and address. This was an indication that the traveler would be away from home, and therefore a good mark to hit. With this tag, at least the crook had to make the overt act of lifting the flap. This was manufactured in the U.S.A. * And the last item is a handsome custom gift box. We had these custom made to hold mostly writing instruments, and I especially liked to sell Sheaffer or Parker pens to the Bell System and insert the pen in this custom box. Details:This gift box is in metal, covered in a leather like material with hinged back. The inside has a silk top printed with the Bell System Seal, and a gold velour base. The size is 6″ x 2.5″ x 1.25″ closed. This assortment of four different items are a great opportunity for anyone who was affiliated with Southern Bell or perhaps collects old telephone memorabilia. They will be well packed to insure safe arrival. Although quite old, all are in as new condition, and never used. It is amazing – and interesting to see how many were made in the U.S.A.! Times have certainly changed…From a smoke free, pet free climate controlled environment.Only $28.00 for everything and you will also receive a few ADDITIONAL communication related advertising SURPRISE samples to boot!!!
