1902 Stromberg Carlson Common Battery Wall Set
This type of telephone was used in metropolitan areas. It utilized the
"common battery" that was located in the switchroom at the telephone
company. Instead of "cranking" you simply lifted the receiver to contact
the operator. This particular set was purchased from an antique store in
San Francisco, California. It is part of the Christianson Telephone
Collection.
