Antique Wooden Wall Telephone (WORKING!!)

  

Wood wall-mounted telephones were the first phones put into wide circulation following Alexander Graham Bell's invention in 1876. Typically tall and bulky, they needed several compartments to hold the batteries and magneto (a hand cranked generator to signal the operator). The earliest (and most valuable) wood phones were hand crafted of walnut. Later wood phones were mass-produced of oak, up through WW2.

 

This antique wooden phone uses modern day electronics to get you talking but will add an extra touch to any room with a geniune 1876 look and feel. 

Although the phone has been listed as second hand it is still in a new condition and hardly used. 

Please take note that the dial is of the push button type.
