The burned in stamped numbers are a mystery to me. Do you know what they represent? I’m hoping you get the photos of all the angles

The numbers are most likely the 'serial number' of that particular phone. Don't forget that when these were used they technically always remained the "property" of the Telco, they then probably used those numbers to keep track of whichever any customer had however many of whatever kind of phone set, for billing/etc purposes.
@AnythingObscure. Ok, that sounds reasonable. Thanks again
You should get the battery that goes with the phone. Looks like a nice one.
@fortapache where would I find the batteries and what does it look like? I’ve not seen any
FLdeb, here's the quickest handy link I could find just now to show pictures of "#6 dry cell batteries" which your phone would have been equipped with, probably two or 3 of 'em, located in that now empty part of your phone cabinet box.
