About Antique Model 302 Telephones

The 302 was the Bell System's mainstay phone for two decades (1937-1958), and the first Western Electric phone not to require a subset. The 302 was designed by industrial designer Henry Dreyfuss (1904-1972), who also designed John Deere tractors, Hoover vacuum cleaners, and streamlined trains. The 302 was the first WE telephone containing all of its circuitry within the base and not requiring a separately mounted subset box for the ringer.
