Check out this guy on YouTube. Incredible restorations of various old stuff (sometimes electronic, sometimes not). He’s got a great technique for removing that yellow colour (using UV light and hydrogen peroxide). Incredible channel - https://youtu.be/RzxguPfWhe0?si=dyv95xPI0qtGYOq5

These telephones became popular in the 1950s and 1960s, when telephones were considered decorative home appliances. Over time, the phone changed from a variety of colors, including avocado green, harvest gold, and burnt orange of the 1970s, followed by the more subdued browns and beiges of the 1980s.
