I have one too . I think is for a model T FORD motor coil
from what I have seen on ebay, that is exactly what it is.
Model T Ford Coil, the cool thing with these is , you can remove them from the car while it's running and the car will run on as few as two cylinders. I've seen this with my own eyes by a guy in Albion, PA
Is this for a motor for a car or is it a morse code machine?
I have one of these as well, did anyone have any idea of worth? Or what it actually is? I am keen to learn more.
Thanks
