I'm looking for an old bell mount for our two box wood phone. I know they can be bought new but I would much rather have something that is old and worn to match the one on the phone which is from 1903-1905. The one which was on the phone is 3" +/- overall length and 2 5/8" between the two screw holes on the phone where it was mounted. It has a 1" projection. The width of the metal is about 5/16". I also need the knurled handle screw to hold it on. I can send a picture of the one we have it if is helpful. I know the mount can't really be seen once the bell is on and my big concern is to have the mount line up with the original screw holes, I don't want to make extra holes in the phone. Thanks to all.
