Since there are already 18 bids and its on Collector's Weekly, this no longer qualifies as a "sleeper"

The wooden phone in the lot looks like a possible Whitman and Couch as well but I cannot tell  without access to Google (parents computer has the stupid Google re-direct virus)

I have a box just like that one and it's clearly marked Whitman-Couch

Do you have a matching candlestick to go with it???

Can you tell if the transmitter for the wall phone can be mounted on the candlestick?  Or does it need extra parts?

I guess it would, depending on the mount.  It looks a lot like the Stromberg transmitter that you would see on the triplet.

And no, I don't have the matching candlestick - yet.  After looking at a picture of the couch candlestick I guess it is the same transmitter.
