    I picked up this vintage fire call box locally, as you can see there's no phone but its a really cool piece and the price was right. It's a model 111A but I have no idea as to its manufacturer or date... Can anyone out there share some info about it?

      Your Fireman telephone call box model number 111A was manufactured by Western Electric Co in Columbus, Ohio during the 1950's

      Hmmm, thanks Tom, I saw one on ebay but it said it was taken from the Western Electric plant, I wasn't sure if that was the manufacturer. Thanks again
