Now to find this piece for the backrest. I have a spot for it. I think it's to hang their headsets on.

A wallet goes inside a purse or handbag, along with everything else!

The joys of USA and UK English!

In this case, we're concerned with Bell System English.

BSP 065-100-102, issue 6, July 1982, section 2.18 - "Purse Holders"

It also mentions accessories for the backrest, including ticker holders and U-hooks.

A basic search in the TCI Library for "065 100" (the space is important) will give several additional BSPs of interest. One even covers maintenance of the purse holders.

Eek, another version of English! ;)
In the UK if that was a purse holder I hate to think how big a handbag you'd need to put it in. ;D

I found a home for my chair. In my telephone room with the 1960s Wooden Privacy Booth.

That is my favorite booth - thanks for the reposting that.  Reminds me of banks or gov't buildings when I was a kid......   Nice display, but I'd rotate a 3-slot in that booth at some point.... :)

I did have a 3 coin in it out in the garage, but the problem is I have no wall space for the Millennium in this room. I have a total of 7 payphones in there. 4 three coin, 2 single coin Centurions and the Millennium. I would love to have the wall space to mount them all.

QuoteThere is a purse holder on ebay right now...

It occurred to me that anyone who hasn't actually seen one of these hooks would have no idea about their size just from the eBay pictures.
Those WE engineers were BIG thinkers.

Anyone needing a hook like that for a purse had better not travel with me.
