Western Electric model numbers? (349E)

I was wondering if there is a comprehensive list of Western Electric model numbers.

I recently sold a WE model 349E on eBay (http://tinyurl.com/7a3kbl4). Based on a few references I found on the Internet, I estimated that this phone dated from around 1910, but I wasn't sure. It would have been nice to have had an authoritative listing of models with release and production dates so that I could have been more precise. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I have no info about this phone. But it is funny you should post this, as I was just looking at the one I have, and was going to ask about it.  From your listing, I have most of the info I was looking for.

One thing I do want to ask. This is shown with a 144 rec. But by the pat. dates and age, I would think it would have a pony rec.

What do other think ???
