This diagram are translated, and modified to include 2 dials, and earth button.

The last one is the more common single dial version.

That would be a great phone for someone with two teenage daughters ;D

Finally space for an Oslo phone with wall shelf. Oslo was going to save then you managed with only one model phone, and if you had it on the wall then there was a desk phone on the shelf.
This one is probably from the war for the gongs are galvanized.

The only one I have seen with this shelf.

That is a really cool set-up.  Very interesting variation of a telephone.
Thanks for posting.

Very Cool, very different phone. Is the shelf part attached to the phone or is it mounted separately?

It is like a table with a locking system to fix the phone. The phone is the standard telephone you could get in Oslo between 1934 and 1953.  You could choose what model you want as long as you went for this ... in black.   ;D

Cool. Kind of like the Ford Model A, available in any color you like as long as it was Black!

Do you have a picture of the ;locking mechanism?

Added 3 pictures at the top. The "table/shelf)  The diagonal arm fits tightly, and hs to be rotated to so it locks the phone on two of the legs. Under the table it is a circular "nut" to tighten the arm.  And ofcourse it is som holes in the table to bake it more easy to swing the arm.

And yes just like Ford, but here you also have to choose Ford or nothing.  ;D

Thanks for adding the pictures. That is a pretty clever device. I have seen lots of those type phones on eBay & elsewhere but that is the first wall mount. Cool!

Opening the phone is easy with just a spring lock, the handset transmitter capsule may be a little more tricky.

In the capsule cover it is a small hole in the middle of the red x, press a needle in there to move a locking tab, and then unscrew the bakelite cover.
