I remember black, white, beige, and green, 3 slot, rotary & touchtone
Western Electric (WECO) payphones. These were very common in the
Chicago area in the 60's & 70's, but were being replaced by the boxy,
single slot touchtone models.

I also remember an Automatic Electric (AE) model in all chrome in the
non-Bell areas. It was a rotary dial. (I've NEVER seen an AE
touchtone payphone.)
