Description by seller: “This is a magnificent example of a rare and early 3-box wall telephone from the early 1890’s with a Blake transmitter and red-band outside terminal receiver. It has a top box with generator and receiver hook, a middle transmitter box and a bottom box with battery shelf. It is missing the receiver cord which looks to have rusted away. The top terminals on the receiver are rusted solid. Otherwise the telephone seems to be complete and in pretty good condition for its age”.

This is definitely a very nice  Collectible that brought a lot of attention and a great price. Is this your auction and prefer we remove your item? If so, send us an email here.
