A bit to late for the find of this month but wanted to share this with you.
It's a Siemens & Halske PABX from around 1927 (the capacitors are marked 1927).
Still in working order and it's noisy :)

Wow, a definite find of the month. I sure wish you could find items like this here on PEI!
Congratulations - a great find!

Yes, a great find. The best thing is that is was free!
It looks to be in excellant condition.
Good find Remco.

I have to say, that's a very nice looking PABX, built into a rather impressive looking wood cabinet, later PABXs just looked a bit dull being built in metal or plastic cabinets, this one used proper craftsmanship to put together... ;D

Noise is always good with these sort of things! Better hide it from Gary, it looks like he just might be able to fit it into a suitcase next time he comes for a visit.
