Rotary Trimline from 1969

Cool.  Do you have pictures of the "Trimline cord"?  The cord was the precursor of the modular plugs we use today.

Thanks for the correction on the power sources for lighting.  I was going on memory and wasn't sure of when the need for a separate cord was eliminated.  I have never seen a Trimline with a separate power cord but have no doubt that they are out there.

I will try to get pictures with my computer cam.  I took some of my 10/50 500 for Dennis several months ago and they were fairly blurry but I'll see if I can do better.  I can't locate the digital camera that got buried when I moved, and it may take buying a new one to get the old one to resurface.  The thing I noticed about the 4-prong connector is that it's larger and round, with Bell System logo on it, as opposed to the square shaped 4-prong types that were more common.  Maybe this is the difference between a field installation and a 4-prong system that came from the factory.
