vintage "WESTERN ELECTRIC" 1930S/1940S BLACK ROTARY TELEPHONE bakelite #302 ??

Description

UP FOR AUCTION IS A VINTAGE "WESTERN ELECTRIC" ROTARY DIAL TEELEPHONE. THE PHONE IS BLACK AND IS HEAVY DUTY. THE PATENT SAYS 1922 1923 1935. I THINK THIS ONE IS FROM THE 1930S, OR MAYBE THE 1940S. I ALSO BELIEVE IT MODEL 302, BUT I AM NOT POSITIVE, SINCE IT IS NOT MARKED. IT WAS MADE IN CANADA. THERE IS MINOR WEAR HERE AND THERE, AND SOME WEAR AND SCRATCHES ON THE NUMBERS. THE BUTTONS THAT THE HANDSET SITS ON TO PICK-UP, AND HANG-UP, DO NOT GO UP AND DOWN. THEY ARE STUCK DOWN, AND I CAN NOT GET THEM TO COME UP. IT LOOKS LIKE AN EASY FIX, BUT I AM NOT HANDY AT ALL. I DO NOT HAVE A WAY TO TEST IT, SO I AM SELLING IT *****AS-IS FOR PARTS OR REPAIR*****THERE IS NO WARANTEES, RETURNS, OR REFUNDS*****. THESE WERE BUILT TO LAST FOREVER. IT IS VERY SOLID, AND OVERALL, IT APPEARS TO BE IN GOOD CONDITION. ULTRA RARE.
I HAVE HUNDREDS OF OTHER AWESOME, VINTAGE, AND RARE COLLECTIBLE ITEMS AVAILABLE.
AWESOME AND VERY RARE. BE SURE TO CHECK OUT ALL MY OTHER COOL AND UNUSUAL STUFF. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, CONCERNS, OR PROBLEMS.
Thanks for looking,
Victoria
