Your Stromberg-Carlson metal wall phone code number 1157 was manufactured in 1929. This wall phone is using a North Electric dial since Stromberg-Carlson didn't manufacture there own dial at that time. Stromberg-Carlson Manufacturing Co. of Chicago, Ill was founded by Alfred Stromberg & Androv Carlson in 1894. In 1903 the company moved to Rochester, NY.
I really appreciate your response... One more question... Is this valuable??
Yea I'm serious...obviously I don't know..thats why I posted it... fyi... not a single dent on it... ain't in great shape... things been in a shed under all kinds of junk for who knows how long... u don't like it... then don't look... damn sure don't comment with dumb shit like that... that's serious too...
Jholmes, Condition has a lot to do with value. As the phone looks right now it would sell on Ebay around $25.00 to $40.00, But there are collectors who like that barn fresh look.
Thx tucker... is it better to have it original... or fixed up and usable... I have seen where ppl have upgraded to be able to use today....
