Tischernsprecher Model 38 metal desk phone, 10 x 8 in., painted black with a bakelite receiver and wall mount bakelite junction box. The original braided cloth covered receiver cord is present, as well as the cloth covered extension and main line cables which run through the junction box, with crank handle on the right side. The face of the phone displays a card titled: ‘SS-Oberabschnitt Alpenland’ (‘SS-Upper Section of Alpine Country’) indicating this desk phone was for the SS headquarters in Austria. This model replaced the insufficient Feldfernsprecher 33. The black paint has chipped away in some places, else very good.
