Came across this on eBay, this guy has quite a few phone parts. In case you missed it:

Yes, you may have. Some of those machine screws, if they are what I think they may be, would have been worth the purchase price alone.

The screws in that 1 tray are all the hard to find machine screws that are needed for phones. Dials, transmitters, etc. Worth the price by itself. The rest of the pile would be a bonus.

More parts, large parts?  . . .   and who knows what else, seems like more than transmitters in the photos. Dollar a pound.

Which of you got it?  There is only a puff of dust there now.   :)

Looks like most of the stuff sold. I should have looked closer, the seller is very close to me. I could have bought it all and saved the shipping! I contacted him about the remaining stuff. Maybe he will make a deal for it all and I can pick it up.

Those radio receiver transmitters were pretty old "boatanchors of some vintage.  They would work for police car restorations.
