Quote from: rfkimba on February 10, 2014, 04:14:41 AMCan anyone help identify this phone by date and  type?  Seems to be from a more modern vessel or from a personal phone in an officers cabin?  It  doesn't seem to  match anything tied into WW2 subs when looking at the operation manuals.

Dear G-man,

I don't have a specific operation's manual I can reference. When I saw this offering on Ebay  I searched Google and Yahoo to see if I could come up with some validation of the item. I quickly thumbed through a WW2 era reference that diagrammed  an old  handset.  I can't seen to relocate it.

Thanks again for the instructive documentation.

This topic was before I joined the forum, but it piqued my interest when Russ posted to it today.  rfkimba, is this the manual you were looking at?  I found it on this page.  Cover and relevant pages attached.
