You never know what will turn up...in this case it's a 5H dial dated IV 36. It was on a 251 non-Bell System phone. This is the 302 Variation made for a Stromberg-Carlson or Kellogg harmonic ringer. The phone was dated 1938 except for the newer cords and the older dial. It was listed as:

"ANTIQUE~CHICAGO ELECTRIC~BAKELITE ROTARY DESK TELEPHONE~REPAIR PARTS~NR"

The dial has a phenol pulse pawl rather than metal pawl with insulated tip found on most 4H and 5H dials. I hope to find a 302 dated 1936 to use it on.

The first 3 pictures are the auction pictures. Sold for $22.
