A couple of nice wood phones

I recently picked up some old wood phones, and have been slowly cleaning them up.  Here are a couple that I just hung up.  First the Williams.  Beautiful wood and nickel almost like new.  I've been looking for the longer phone like the Western Electric Gravemarker, but they always seem to go out of my price range, so this one will have to do for now.

Next one is an early viaduct with a rare Kusel transmitter.  Again, walnut wood is beautiful, but the nickel has faded.  The name changed a couple times, but this name The D.A. Kusel Telephone MFG. Co. dates this phone around 1886.
