    Old Telephones anyone?
    Hi Guys

    Does anyone know where I can find some more information on the workings of old Manual telephone exchanges? I have obtained and collected a lot of very old wooden switchboards and want them to get working again. Any ideas on old manuals or technical information?

    Regards
    SG

    Clough - At A action back in NOV. they had 6 old crank type telephones, they each went for $20.00 up to $75.00. All the parts were still in them. Ithought very deeply about bidding but didn't. They were all in good shape. Good day & GOD BLESS>:::: F.B.E.
