Original German WW2 \"SS\" desk telephone with rotary dial and nickel plated brass fittings. A most impressive unit having the old style hand set that had a mouthpiece shaped like a crooked trumpet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStanding 11\" tall this is hard to miss, in fact included is a photocopy of a page from “Waffen SS: The Illustrated History, 1923-1945” by Christopher Ailsby showing a photograph of an SS Officer in his black uniform sitting at his desk with precisely this type of telephone at his elbow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hand set bears no visible markings from the exterior however on the underside of the unit itself there is a plaque showing the maker's code of RTV and nu.33428 and then another hand written in pen number \"12344\". There is also a very clear SS stamping on the plaque. The rear of the phone has two large nickel plated bells which emitted a fearful racket when the phone was called. A very rare piece of original WW2 \"SS\" equipment that very rarely ever comes to market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Original Items","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":26168201541,"sku":"ON8982","price":1495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1524\/1342\/products\/on8982__1b.jpg?v=1602960194","url":"https:\/\/www.ima-usa.com\/products\/original-german-wwii-ss-marked-rotary-telephone","provider":"International Military Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
