ABSTRACT:
The invention enables individual buttons to be replaced on a push-button telephone without disturbing the other buttons.
Each button is retained in position by lugs formed on the lower portion of the button which engage underneath the edges of a hole formed in the body of the telephone. The edges of the hole are provided with slots and by sliding the button until the lugs become aligned with the slots, the button can be removed. A cover or escutcheon plate fits over the buttons to prevent inadvertent sliding and consequent removal of the buttons.
