Automatic Electric Type 2

[wds]

I picked up this phone this week, should have it next week.  It appears to be in great shape, except that it's missing the network and ringer.  Does anyone have a picture of what the insides should look like?  I would like to restore this, but I'm not sure what parts I need.  Would the guts of a AE subset work in this phone?

I guess that would depend on the type of handset that comes with it.
It could be a Type 12 Monophone if the handset is an induction coil type.
Other than that, the components would be the same as for the No 1 subscriber set, 7007 ?
The part numbers are listed in the catalogs.

Be patient. Two AE 2 bases have appeared on eBay in the last couple of months.

It displays OK as it is so just leave it on the display as you accumulate parts.

Sorry, I don't have a good selection of pictures.

The AE 21 subset probably uses the same parts.

Thanks for the pictures - that's what I was looking for.  I would have thought that all the parts would have been mounted on the base plate - I'm surprised to see those heavy parts mounted on that bakelite shell.

I believe the AE 21 subset was only for the  sidetone booster circuit of the No. 21 desk stand.

I don't think it would matter if one used a sidetone Bell, capacitor or terminal block ;-)

The IC would need to come from elsewhere. I should check my pile of subsets - one or more might be a 7006.

Can anyone tell me what an AE 7006 subset looks like - does it use the same enclosure as the Type 21 Subset?

Thanks
