Description
This is a very interesting authentic ships telephone. This piece was made by Hose-McCann Telephone Company in Brooklyn, NY, and is a model A-W. This phone and its corresponding rotary dial have been mounted to a wood wall mount. An old Radio Room brass sign is also secured to the wood. It does appear that the phone was in use after it was removed from a ship based on the old telephone wire. We have not tested this phone. Impressive brass case, heavy black receiver, and working dial really make this a unique and potentially functional piece of antique nautical equipment. Overall with wood mount, it measures 24 inches tall, 14.5 inches wide and 10 inches deep, weighs 45 pounds.
