Connecticut Toaster Intercom

[LarryInMichigan]

I bought this at the flea market this morning.  The seller wanted $20 for it, but I paid $35 for it and a WE 131W handset.  It was probably not the bargain of the month, but I had to buy something.  At least I didn't buy the black plastic 302 with worn out cords for $50.

The Conn. toaster is in pretty good condition.  The handset cord is worn, and the line cord was cut at the entrance, but the finish is in better than usual condition.  The plastic handset is in good shape.  I already have a Conn. Signal Corps toaster phone like this, but I think that I might add an AE dial and an induction coil, condenser, and ringer from a 302 (if I can figure out where to attach them), and make this into a working telephone.  If i do that, i will probably try to sell the button pad.  I know that there is a small market for them.
