I've been going thru my sticks, this is steel with a brass tube screwed on the shaft. S H Couch Boston MA. Looks like the maker was Kellogg...Doug

Doug, Nice stick! I'm pretty sure Couch made their own sticks except in the early days when they were an agent for Ericsson.

Hi Doug. I have the same SH Couch stick in my "project" boxes. There is nothing wrong with the paint/body/etc. Do you know if they used SH Couch receivers or used another company's receivers.
I like to bring it out to show if I could find the right receiver.

Thanks

Hey Ben...I have Couch receivers on two wood phones, this one looks like an AE on my stick ....Doug

Thanks Doug. I probably have an AE receiver somewhere. Thanks for letting me know. The Couch will get some display time.

Couch might have used "Solid" marked receivers

Thanks for the note. That gives me more options.
