Another eBay find - £22 + £7 postage (~US$37 total) - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285733209157
Certainly not a pristine example but the nickel has cleaned up ok and the paintwork I'll be leaving as is as I love the original transfers.
Works nicely now I have lubricated the dial.
Advertised as Norwegian but I think is actually Swedish?
It came complete with some 'spare parts' that were stuck to the bell magnet (photo in next post), and if anyone knows where they should go I'd be grateful for the info.

"Sold as seen and untested.
The dial is slow to return

The 'spare parts'

HarrySmith

Cool find. I would look at the hook switch or plunger for the possible origin of that "spare part".

Great find, it might be a Televerket BC310 or similar model based on the Ericsson design.
I suppose name and dial are rather Swedish than Norwegian, but might be wrong.

I've looked everywhere and can't find either a spare screw hole or any in-place screw small enough it fit it. Very odd!

HMMMM...it looks like it would attach to the plunger to activate the hookswitch?

It does look like that but the hookswitch is pressed directly by a metal block on the base of the plunger and is working correctly.

OK. Maybe one of our European experts will recognize it.

Hello from Norway :)
This is not a Norwegian phone, it is Swedish. 
Not sure about this one, but you may probably get help at facebook: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=3746563248960227&set=p.3746563248960227&type=3
