    Description

    This listing is for one Kellogg Magneto Red Bar desk telephone.  It is complete and exactly as found!  The pictures don't do it justice and with a little polishing or buffing it could be beautiful!  No problems like cracks or chips!  This is the only one listed on eBay  and there are no records of one being sold, so I don't think I can call it rare, but it is certainly not common.  I have no way of testing phones so I have not idea if it works on modern networks.  I am selling it as a collectible. Nothing in the last three pics is included in this listing.
    I stumbled onto a hoard of telephones that had been sitting for at least 40 years.  At first it appeared to be the remains of an old privately owned telephone company, but has a lot of diverse items like a collector would have.  Maybe it's both!
    It includes over 400 telephones from Western Electric, Automatic Electric, Kellogg, Stromberg Carlson, American Electric, United Electric or Utica Electric, Gray Pay Stations and many others that I haven't gotten to.  Including pay phones, desk phones and wall phones from 1898 to 1980!   Also thousands of parts for all phones and test equipment from all era's.  Wood, metal and bakelite are all going to be listed eventually.  Yes, I am keeping some of them!!
    Most will be auction style and start at a price that I think will be undervalued!
    I will be selling most of them as found with all the dust they came with.  I will describe visible problems that you should be able to see from the pictures.  If parts are missing, I will attempt to find them.  When I list them, they will be as complete as I can make them.
    If you have special request I will try to get that listed, but I expect to be overwhelmed so please be patient.
    During this world medical emergency, I have to rely on family to mail for me, so I have a 10 business day handling time.  We are beating that but you should be aware and please don't bid if that is in any way a problem for you.  Thanks
