    Description

    This vintage phone attachment is intended to fit the 2 inch mouthpiece of a candlestick or wall phone from 1900-1930. It appears unused with its three tabs appearing never to have been folded.  I left the tabs this way but pictured this item next to a candle stick phone mouth piece.  It will be up to you to decide to fold them or not.  It is made out of thin, silver non-magnetic metal.  Telephone accessories are hard to find---- especially in this excellent condition.  I imagine this type of Sanitary Disk  would have been a popular accessory during the Spanish Flu epidemic 100 years ago.  It would add a nice flair to your vintage phone today.  From a small Pennsylvania town, it lists two digit phone numbers.  A. Kent Miller was listed as Vice President of the Somerset Trust Company in a record of its 1910 annual report I found on-line.  I am offering this item at a low starting bid.
    North Carolina SALES TAX will be added.
    Stored and Packaged smoke free.
    For Domestic buyers, I am happy to offer combined shipping at USPS rates.  Please use your shopping cart after you commit to buy by auction or buy it now.  Then make sure to use the "request total" in the right upper corner of my seller's window in your cart.  Please wait for an invoice BEFORE paying to get a combined shipping discount.
    For international buyers, I use ebay's Global Shipping program which uses a third- party shipper who offers combined shipping with
    restrictions. If you are an international buyer and buy multiple items, ebay will allow me to combine your purchases into one box for shipment ONLY if you wait to pay for all of your purchases at the same time using your shopping cart. Please note that ebay uses the combined weights of all the individual items to calculate combined shipping. Unfortunately, ebay will not allow me to offer any further discount on international shipping beyond the saving of shipping one package.
