I love, love, love that one with the 1937 base.  It's my ideal 5302, hiding the fact that there is one of the earliest of the 302 chassis underneath its updated casing.  I'd love to have a G1 handset on a phone like that and blow people away by advising them they were talking on a piece of equipment from 1937.

The second 5302 has more conventional innards, but the housing was apparently originally for a 5410 (hence the metal plug where the line switch would've been). The housing and handset (F1W) both lack Bell System markings.  The bottom plate has "5314" stamped on it, for some reason, along with a date of 1965 and a snowflake-type marking.

I'm a little confused about this.  What exactly is a 5314?

I recently acquired a second 5302-type of phone from Vern, which I'm assuming is a two-line 5410.  That's what it looks like on the inside, but all I have to compare it against is the wiring of a late model modular 515.

The base isn't marked with a model.
Annoying new poster.

I revisited this thread today, and realised, I hadn't posted my 5302, with an unusual dial card. See below.

I also discovered, you know you have WAY TO MANY PHONES, when you see one, like the 5302 Paul posted 2 years ago, with the G1 handset,  I was thinking to my self, now that's kind of nice, I'll have to get me one.  I recall thinking about one like it, a couple years back, If I remember correctly,  I was thinking the handset didn't fit the 5302 case.
Well to make a long story short, I'm dusting off my phones, and low and behold, I have a phone like Paul's, sitting on my shelf. Right there in plain site, for all the world, and God to see, but I forgot I had it. TO MANY PHONES...
NOT A CHANCE.

Wow, that's a shiny phone.  Love the condition.

McHeath,
The phone has a NOS case, everything else is from the original phone.
The original case had some very deep gouges in it.

Well... nothing too exciting, I suppose, but here is my set of 5302s.... from early to medium late issues, a 1956 piece with F1 handset, and 1959 and 1962 with GF handsets, in that sequence from left to right.

1956: Housing: 6 4 56; Base 8-3 47; ringer B1A 3-47; IND 101A I47; 195A IV46 G; dial 5M 756 56L, 164C-3 II56; cord D3AY I56; Handset F1 Bakelite (HA1 1-13-42, F1 8/36 756T 551E)

1959: Housing: 10 28 59; Base 11-49, NOV 1959; ringer B1A 11-49; IND 101A IV48; dial 6H 8-52; Handset GF Bakelite (HA1 11-53, F1 1-47)

1962: Housing: 5-15-62; Base 6-50-1 JUN 26 1962; ringer B1A 6-50-1; IND 101A II-50 1; 195A; dial 5M 10-47; Handset GF Bakelite (HA1 6-29-49, F1 3-47)

I am really only looking for a 1955, and perhaps a 1965 sets, or perhaps a colored version in case they actually exist.

One of these days, I shall polish them. The early set however, came in unbelievable dirty condition inside, nice now... all dialing and receiving nicely

There have been many posts on the forum about 5302's in color.

Here's a beauty that flew under the radar on ebay three years ago. It  looked like a 500 in the listing. I have cleaned her up since I took these pictures.

Here is my one and only 5302 with F1 handset and a base from 1947.

Silly me, I was looking for a "Like" button for it!   :D

Howard;
I'm wondering where the handset cord is from, it doesn't appear WE issue. Looks like one you would expect to see on a AE.
