TELEPHONE No. 63

This telephone was supplied by the Western Electric Company, their type 130A.  It had a single wire from the transmitter, the other side of the transmitter being connected to the iron casing of the telephone.  Western Electric later changed the telephone design so the transmitter was not connected via the case but by two wires and it became the type 1130A.

It was used in conjunction with a Bellset No. 11 (Western Electric type 131A and later type 1131A) which had no gongs, the clapper of the ringer beat against two metal upstands on the inside of the case to make a noise.

Found in the 1914 rate Book.
