[VPNAVY]

Just wondering if anyone has any information (documentation) on this puppy.  I have done some research - but it never hurts to ask.   I am cleaning it up, etc.  Thanks!

KELLOGG CATALOGUE:   No. 100 - Circa 1941.
CHAPTER:                       Wall Type Magneto Switchboard - Magneto Masterbuilt Switchboard
PAGE 9 DESCRIPTION:   Type 30 - Capacity 30 Lines
ORDER INSTRUCTIONS:  When ordering or requesting information on the No. 30 switchboard...
ADDITIONAL:                  Found a vintage all-bakelite Masterphone handset (waiting for delivery)
                                      Found patch cords - getting pricing.

Thanks Contempra for the quick reply.  I am also hoping their is something available with a more detailed description.  You know - something like an Owner's Manual.  Hey, I can hope!

Welcome to the forum!
You can check out Kellogg Mike's site for info, if it is not there I am sure he will know where it is!

For cords check with Steve Hilsz,

Now, if this is your only phone item you should still be OK. Quit NOW! Before Phonitis sets in. You will be sure to contract this incurable, progressive disorder if you hang around here. You will next need phones for your switchboard, then maybe a non-magneto board, or phones in different color. Paperwork too, already looking for a manual, maybe the original BSP's for it, or some catalogs. How about some porceleain signs? The list goes on & on. You will soon run out of room & money!
Seriously, you have found the best place on the net with the best people around for old phones

Steve does not have much stuff listed on the site. You would get better results by contacting him directly, either email or call.
Same with Mike, shoot him an email, I am sure he will know where to find the info. Did you check the TCI library? This is an invaluable resource for phone documents, anything and just about everything related to phones is there or is ready to be added there. Check it out:
