    This phone was given to my dad by a good friend of his. Who found this and a few other telephones in an abandoned barn in Mississippi. When my dad got it it was so dirty with some kind of gook. So my dad scrapped off all the dirt and gook and then lightly sanded it. He then put a nice coat of clear varnish. And this is the result. A beautiful Western Electric telephone.

      I want to mount this phone to the wall. Any and all suggestions are welcomed.

      They will work with some tinkering with a landline.
