Here's something you don't see every day. Victorian-era jagging iron, which despite its name, is actually made of brass! I think it's very cute!!...
It looks nice, but that don't look like no hebrew I ever seen. I reckon like the others do - it's probably Asian.
I'd love to see it. I love old brassware.
I've never known anything to be stolen at our flea market. At least one item a week (usually something made of glass) is smashed, by a careless...
The market that I go to accepts anything with an an engine and wheels! I've seen cars, trucks, removal vans, flatbeds, pick-up trucks...It's...
My local market is every Sunday morning. Some of the things I've found there are absolutely amazing.

Hehehehe. Well, I hope the OP has all the necessary information that she needs to revive this box. It won't be easy, but it is possible. If she...

I soooooo hate the fact that everything in Australia costs 10 times what it does everywhere else in the world.

I see the plug's been cut off, so that'll have to be re-wired. I thought these phones had cloth cords?
Worth? I wouldn't have a clue. Standard rotary phones are extremely cheap. Any antiques shop on earth will have loads of them. This being older is...
It's got an inbuilt rotary dial, so I'm assuming it's a later model, from the 1920s probably. By the 30s I think these were going out of style.
There is a LOT missing. It would be possible to repair it if you or your husband have sufficient woodworking skills, but that's up to you....
Greetifications from Melbourne!
