I came across this page after reading about it on a blog..

They sell expensive re-wired vintage phones. I think all of the phones are from Argentina.

Prices were a bit shocking...but maybe there is a big market for this now?

Those are nice, but you can pick up the real deal on ebay for less. Western Electric 302s (first made in 1937) in good working condition typically cost quite a bit less. With luck, you can even pick up older models for under $200. I got a 202 for about $150 (with its original ringer box) and it works perfectly. I also picked up a 653 wall phone for about $120. I use both phones regularly.
