1898 Williams-Abbott Electrical Co. Tapered Shaft

Item Details

Description

This is a really nice, completely original Williams-Abbott fat tapered shaft desk set. Marked transmitter and marked "milk bottle" outside terminal receiver. The Williams-Abbott Company was established in Cleveland in 1895 but was sold in 1907 to the Federal Telephone & Telegraph Company. The scan is from an original advertisement in the July, 1903 issue of Telephony magazine, showing this exact fat tapered shaft. The face plate has been brassed out but the telephone is otherwise in outstanding original condition. Size 11" T.
