For Sale a very nice B-1/534A

The phone is as removed from service.  The paint is nice overall except for the wear on the cradle.  The white spot on the front of the cradle is old paint that can be removed.

Features:

E-1 Handset in decent condition (no cracks or chips) with '36 F-1 element

Original cords

Interesting 4H dial missing the patent dates on the side.  Has a 132-A notched dial plate and brass fingerwheel

Very clean inside, painted black when refurbished in III 41

Base has felted wool that has been moth-eaten

Super nice 534 subset

$160

534A?

All original 4H dials have patent dates on the back. They were made between 1930 and 1938.
The later 2A and most 2H dials also have dates on the back.

The only 4H dials with dates on the side are the ones converted from 2-type (ca. 1920-1928)
