Very nice.
What's inside the housing (does it need a subset)?
I don't have it, just won it last night after I went to bed, pleasant surprise in the AM.....I'll let you know....Doug
Doug - That's a real beauty! Does this get a special place in your "keeper" room?
Paul......it is a keeper. something will have to leave for another collection. I am more than happy, these usually go much higher...much nicer than the "Adolph" phone in my humble opinion.....Doug
yes, very nice and great price. It's very similar to my Siemens Halske Phone
The Siemens is beautiful! I hope I can make mine look half as nice.....its a beauty!....Doug
Doug - I think this and your stock exchange phone are two of the most appealing phones I've seen...
thanks Paul...the Turrett phone is special for me as I work for a Private Bank and Turretts are still used by Traders on the NYSE, just a little more advanced. I especially like the dial card. Below is a link to the thread and a before and after pictures....Doug

Very nice find. Wish I had seen it.
I got it on Monday but didn't get to work on it until today. The original paint is in very nice shape. Nickel shows wear in place but still displays well. It was missing the screw that holds the cradle on, I tried to improvise, but I am looking for another. Cloth cord is fraying in places, but is fine for now.
This came out better than expected for not a lot of work....Doug
Nice! Looks Great!
I may have a screw for the cradle. I worked on a bunch of Eurpean phones a few years back for a customer and I have some spare parts somewhere. I know I had some cradle screws, I will look tomorrow.
thanks Harry....Doug

Harry....ever find a screw for this beauty?....Doug
Wow! Nice one. How in the world did I miss seeing that one.
Sorry Doug, I forgot to look. I will check when I get home tonight.
Writing a reminder note right now! My memory ain't what it used to be!
Sorry Doug. Just went through my hardware and I did not find a cradle screw.
thanks Harry....I have one that seems to be holding.....Doug
