Antique Telephone Diagram Page

The following diagrams are scans of actual schematics from some of the common antique telephones.


Notes:
    *The Western Electric candlestick telephones and the A1, B1 and D1 mountings require a separate ringer box with induction coils as noted.
    * Diagrams that are shown in .gif or .jpg format will look good in your browser but will not fit a page when printing.  It would be best to download the diagrams and open them in programs such as MS Photo Editor or Irfanview for high quality printing scaled to the page.
