I just found d a Kellogg 21 dial. I've searched all my data and the net and can't find a model phone that uses it. I'd love to find a wrecked phone to fit it in. It seems to be in perfect condition. It could be a fun project.

Could you add a photo of the dial front, and the reverse side.

It is the AE licensed copy. I am not certain but I assume it was used on early Masterphones.

There is very little in Kellogg's catalogues about dials. That didn't make many - mostly used AE dials.

They made a dial for the Masterphone 1000 in 1947 and they made one in 1922. As far as I can see, they are the only dials they talk about until the K500.

Kellogg also made their own Select O Phone systems. These dials resemble a AE dial but are NOT compatible to use on today's POTS lines and will not work.....Doug

I think those were all variations of the Masterdial

Here are some photos.

Your inpulse cam will have to be rotated so the end of the contact that rests on the impulse cam will fall in the narrow part. Someone might have a photo.
