i bought this phone from a private seller on craigslist it caught my eye as well as my wifes and was something we just had to have we had never seen one before and it was just so unique i started collecting phones a little while ago with the thought that phones have such an important history and have played a huge role in where the world has come from and where it is now and where it is going phones have literally changed the world and technology and continue to do so any this phone is brass it is a rotary and there are columns that can be removed to make it a desk phone and added to make it a floor phone it has marble and brass there is nothing to really tell where it comes from where it was made when it was made there is really no markings or nothing on it anywhere i have tried looking online and cant find nothing about it online either my wife and i are stumped as far as finding any info about it we would like to know the year it was made what it cost when it was made the value now the rate of the value in either increase or decrease what type of person would have owned it how many were made how many are still around and whatever else we can figure out thanks for looking at my ad and i hope to hear from someone and hope they have a lot of info about my item thanks for looking and youre knoledge have a great day
