    found these today at a yard sale and just had to have them! I know nothing about old phones, just wondering if anyone knows anything about them? did it come as a lamp or is did someone make it into one later and are they at all valuable?

      These were novelty phones made in the 1970's. They actually worked as phones and I believe yours were made into lamps by a previous owner. If no permanent damage has been done, these could probably be rewired and work as phones again.
