Greetings and welcome to our auction. Today we are offering an early phone by Western Electric. It has an Art Deco appearance to it but I think it may actually date back to the early 1940's. The body of the phone is black metal and the hand set is bakelite. This is a dial telephone. The release seems to be in good working order. Inside the phone I saw the number 101 A. I didn't know if that was relevant but thought I would mention it. The cord attaching the handset to the body of the phone is there and there's a long cord to attach into the wall. That is just cut off clean. The phone measures 5 1/2" high to top of handset, about 9" across at the handset and 7 3/8" deep. I am selling this in "AS IS" condition. It remains untested. I have tried to take photos of this all the way around so that you may see its' overall condition. I wasn't able to unscrew the two ends on the handset to see if the guts are there. All in all a very interesting piece. So if you've been wanting something to restore or to use for parts you just might want to consider this. PLEASE LOOK AT OUR OTHER LISTINGS. I HAVE MORE PHONES FROM THIS ESTATE. I will always combine shipping. The phone weighs nearly 7 lbs. so I estimated the shipping weight at 8-9 lbs. to allow for weight of box and packing materials. Thanks for looking and have fun ebaying.
