at 58 I remember dial phones, and I really don%26#39;t ever remember seeing a lime green one, there were pink princess phones and black, white and gold, but I really never ever saw a green one..you can go to ebay or amazon and see if anyone is selling an old dial type phone and have someone good with spray paint use the spray for plastics [the other kind wont bond with plastic and will flake off] and carefully take the cover off the phone a spray it lime green..good luck with that, its a cute idea. Here%26#39;s a cute one with a frog or something on ebay for less than $10 currently. The little frog lights up when it rings!!

Just enter "green phone" and then scroll through them. You might also try adding "-cell" to remove any references to cellular phones and such. Try ebay (and other web sites), vintage/thrift stores and flea markets. Hope this helps on ebay! Automatic Electric made a mint green rotary dial phone (see link on ebay) but the only manufacturer that made lime green that I can think of is Stromberg Carlson. I didn%26#39;t see one on ebay but they are there frequently. Most of the other manufacturers like Western Electric made moss green phones.
