Designed & engineered by Bell and manufactured by their Western Electric Division this was one of the earliest dial desk telephones. Western Electric dial candlestick telephones were made of solid brass and painted black.
Very few were produced compared to the earlier non dial type. They are much more difficult to find and expensive. In the early days multiple line telephones were not yet developed.
Locations requiring more than one line were supplied with several telephones. Some types: COW BELLS, LIBERTY BELLS, SLEIGH BELLS, "T" BELLS, WOOD BELLS, GLASS BELLS and several sizes of round bells.Your family, friends and guests will marvel at this interesting telephone. It is fun to demonstrate it and explain the history. Kids will want to know how to dial a call.
