Designed by Bell and manufactured by their Western Electric Division the 202 set a new level of style, quality and dependability.
This was the classic telephone style of the Roaring 20"s. I have provided this model for many movies, TV, and Theater. I supplied over 60 telephones for the Untouchables, many for Billy Bathgate, Ship Of Fools, and over one hundred others.The sound quality rivals modern telephone. Just plug it to your modular jack and it is ready to work.
It is amazing that 1930's technology and components produced a telephone of this quality and durability.
Subsets were common at that time as subscribers wanted small phones. The large operating components: ringer, capacitors & network were housed in a box (SUBSET) mounted on the wall near the phone . It can sit on the floor or under furniture. There is plenty of cord.
The Western Electric 202 is the most popular antique telephone on the market today.
You will be pleased with the beauty, quality and performance of this fine instrument.
