<edit> Need pictures Ray....don't want to lose them once the eBay link goes dead which will be about when you've retired to a Caribbean Island after selling some of your fantastic creations.

I remember when you built that one. Beautiful! IIRC that was a recreation of a special phone, right?

No, Harry; the re-creation was this one: Originally created & installed by Illinois Bell in the Museum of Science & Industry in Chicago. I spent several years searching for the original, and had several conversations with the museum's curator, and ultimately gave up the search for the original and created this one. It's a WE181G.
