I would like to know if anyone has ever heard of a Western Electric E2 handset. The one I have seen is seamless and has a green 834 number stamped inside on the receiver end. How rare are they and what type of phone did they come on when new? What is one worth in nice condition in today's market? Thanks Fred

I have an old Sears Roebuck wooden Wall Phone the I am restoring and the only part I am missing is the Receiver Hook. I am told that this receiver hook is a Chicago, does anyone have one of these for sale or know where I can find one?

Recently I acquired a couple of antique phones from the son of a railroad telegrapher in addition to a plethora of railroad (small stuff) and telegraphic equipment. My newly acquired Western Electric wall phone is now up on my wall (home office room) and a very good friend of mine happens to be a phone man so he was able to get this phone back to life and it really works!! I also acquired a special type of candlestick phone from the same donor in that the dialing system is separate from the unit. My friend will get this going when I can set up a special table/desk area for all the goodies. Lately I've been searching the Internet on Antique phone learning more about what I now own. It was nice to find your site.

I am looking for information on the 3 way stool that was used in the central office as a step stool, or small work bench. It had 3 different dimensions and was made by Western Electric out of Oak or other heavy wood. I am looking for one, or the dimensions.

A photo or two would be nice also.

Thank you in advance for your time and help.
